Can 2 different Apple TV 4k's be used as a Homekit hub in the home at the same time? We just bought a 2nd apple TV 4k and I'm unsure if I turn both on as a hub.

HomeKit will have one hub device as the (main) hub in a home, and any other hub devices as ‘standby’. It is smart enough to not get confused with your secondary hub device. Other hubs will extend the (bluetooth) range, and serve as backup hub. You can configure it all in the Home app on your iOS device.
