I think this kind of thing happened on A13 -- the MMC2 of A13 is
8-bit, but Lichee Pi One wires it to a SD card slot (4-bit); then
the remaining 4 data lines are wired out as GPIO. (Lichee Pi's
do not like obeying reference design ;-) )

But I think a MMC/SDIO device under 1-bit mode is too slow that
maybe no one will use such a setup.
