Probably because it won’t work or sound good. Or because it’s not needed.

IEMs on the other hand often do have different drivers for different frequencies, like my xenns top 1 dd for bass and 8 BAs for mid, highs and what not

So why do IEMs do it when wouldnt headphones stand to benefit the most from it, being able to have the lows and mids on the woofer and a tweeter to do all the highs?

Probably space and positions of the speakers. In an IEM the sound goes right inside your ears. Speakers stand in your room far enough away to not make the sound come from different angles. Having the drivers close to your ear in different positions may make the sound come from different angles and thus making positional audio worse.

Other than that it’s probably just not as practical.

You can also take a look into the 1 more Tripple

Are there IEMs with multiple dynamic drivers though? I don't think I know any.

The truthear zero is a huge one.

So a gaming headset. Reminds me of the 5.1 gaming craze we had a while ago with multi-driver, multi-channel headphones.
