Question Reading multiple tags simultaneously - NFC advantages over QR

The advantages NFC has over QR code is the ability to be read without lights and on curved surfaces. One potential advantage could be to read multiple nfc tags simultaneously. Is this possible with NFC?

No, this wouldn't be possible - not with phones, at least. Many readers, when presented with two tags 'stacked' together, will simply read neither of them. Others will read just one of them.

A slightly related piece of information is that a single NFC tag can't be read by multiple devices at the same time.
