I know a bit is a bit, and it's on the same boxes and the same linecards 
and the same interfaces and the same RPs (if it comes to that).

But keeping stuff separate at the IP logical network level is better 
than mixing it together, even on the same hardware.  Doing it physically 
separately is best.
