One of my first jobs was working at a Cici's Pizza in Oklahoma City. People are very serious about their all you can eat, and some people push it to the limit. Every so often, people would come in during lunch and try to stay through dinner. At some point in the late afternoon, the manager would have to intervene and tell them they'd have to pay again if they stayed longer. People got upset, sure, but we didn't promise endless shrimp. Just awful pizza.

What are the supposed ramifications?

Surely there must be tons of cases where a child's genetic parentage is unknown or uncertain but a single individual takes responsibility without a DNA test? That seems unremarkable to me?

Female cats try to get as many males as possible to mate with them when they're in heat. That's why you can have a variety of different fur patterns and colours in a single litter.

Yeah, cats are rare in that they can be impregnated by sperm from multiple mates at once. Theoretically each kitten can have its own different father.

Some birds have a thing where the females try to mate with as many males as possible to increase the chances of fertilization, but male biology has evolved to counter this by the males have massive loads that blow the last males load out of the cloaca. So it pays to be the last in line and get the sloppiest of seconds.

Yep, it's called superfecundation. Humans can do it to but it's very rare.

Not exactly the same but there's this "endless" sushi place in my town where they add increasing amounts of salt to the rice with every round. After round 3 it's basically inedible. If you somehow keep going the wait between rounds becomes ridiculously long, like almost an hour. Shame, because the first couple rounds are pretty delicious!

(the two fathers would probably need to be closely related themselves to prevent the foetus dying of autoimmune issues as soon as it gets a circulatory system)

There's a fantastic sushi place near me that has an all-you-can-eat deal, but also an "if you're a dick about it we'll charge you extra about it" clause in addition to only being able to order 2 or 3 things at a time per person at the table. And they've got actual real wasabi!

In theory this opens the possibility of a single person having two different fathers. Very occasionally fertilised ova will merge together again while still in the very early stages of development. If this is too late in the development process then you get conjoined twins, but if it's very very early then you can get a person with absolutely normal anatomy except that some parts of them have different DNA than other parts of them. Normally the two parts are regular fraternal twins, but in theory they could have two different fathers.

Allegedly cats have barbed penises to scrape the sperm of their competitors out of their mates vagina, among other things. Nature is beautiful.

this is also a proposed purpose for the flared base on the head of a human penis before the shaft.

"Abandoned" is an...interesting word choice.

(And probably on purpose for this reason, drive "engagement" or something. poo poo, they got me. They got me good.)
