The most obvious one I can see is that you will need to reload from disk after each and every change to any of the linked jobs... which will be nasty... as otherwise Jenkins will not know that the other jobs have had their configuration changes and thus will not pick up the change and if you go change one of the others you will undo the changes from the first
