I searched for this a lot but couldn’t find the answer. Tomcat documentation on virtual hosting explains the example on a Host that is set as default for that Engine.
So that makes me wonder if you can only have a single default application or a ROOT.war or ROOT folder for each Engine or each Host element can have their own default application?

They can each have their own default application, you just have to specify which it is. From a security perspective I disagree with creating unnecessary root applications.
A thread will be spawned for each Application on each host. so three engines with three hosts using the same ROOT you will have nine instances of ROOT running.
