Abstract Entanglement polytopes have been recently proposed as a way of witnessing the stochastic local operations and classical communication (SLOCC) multipartite entanglement classes using single particle information. We present first asymptotic results concerning the feasibility of this approach for a large number of qubits. In particular, we show that entanglement polytopes of the L -qubit system accumulate in the distance O ( 1 L ) from the point corresponding to the maximally mixed reduced one-qubit density matrices. This implies existence of a possibly large region where many entanglement polytopes overlap, i.e. where the witnessing power of entanglement polytopes is weak. Moreover, we argue that the witnessing power cannot be strengthened by any entanglement distillation protocol, as for large L the required purity is above current capability.
