I mean, you can place as many secret stars you want and they will still count.
Only exit stars don't count.
This is completely false.
SMBX indexes stars by the section where they've been collected.
If you collect one star in Section 1 of a level, that register is filled. It's a boolean. It won't turn super-true upon collection of another star in the same section. And since collectible stars and exit stars access the same list, there's no distinction between them when it comes to their limitations.

Note how the star counter never goes above 1.
