Supporting Multiple Apple Watches (WatchOS 7, iOS 14)

When a user has multiple Apple Watches, can the secondary watches send messages to the iPhone via WCSession?

WC Session Documentation is quite limited on how to best support multiple Apple Watches.

According to the docs:

The Watch app on each watch stays in the active state

This leads to me believe that each watch could still send a message to the iPhone via WCSession since the session remains active on each watch, but this is not clear.

Can anyone confirm that multiple watches can send messages to one iPhone? Or point to other documentation that may be useful? (WCSession messages would be initiated through a background task or push notification).
