I am experimenting with key/value metadata and it seems like a single line can only have 1 key/value pair. Documentation doesn't discuss this limitation ... am I right?

That's my understanding as well: only one per line. But you can put tags on multiple lines that apply to a single posting, for example:

2019/05/16 someone
    expenses: something      ; tag1: value1
        ; tag2: value2
    liability: some credit card                           $50
