One of the major justifications for loading screens in the Sims 4 has nothing to do with multitasking, it has to do with the client base they are going after. The Sims 4 comes at the time after the open world concept was good for the Sims 3, but it had so munch problems with it as the target market of simulation games have never had much luck at generating enough high end game players to make it worth the higher details and attention with the MMORG and the first person single player or team shooting games they have not really had a chance. So to make up the difference they offer the most lacks system requirement they can go to make sure that most computers will be able to play the game. The major problem with TS3 is it really annoyed the lower end of the target market that don't have the best computers. Its not about whether they can do it as you can do anything with computer games now. So they had to make sure the Sims 4 would be able to be compatible with both PC and later on Mac a year later, and if they wanted more money they wanted to make sure they could eventually branch it off to console, mobile and that way you could play The Sims anywhere. So what I am saying its not about if they can or should do it, Its about making sure their target audience can play the game on any store bought computer which not many simmers know about how computers run and what computers would give you more bang for your money by making sure the game can run fresh off the shelf of a computer store they have a higher chance of making a lot more money and attracting new gamers.
Also, a side note. Most processors can run 2 or 3 games at once especially the dual and quad core processor the limitation is not the processors themselves but the ram and the input controls. In theory you could run The Sims 4, Car Mechanic 2018, Farming Simulator 17, but you only got one graphics card one keyboard and mouse and limited ram memory, which part has to be used by the OS.
