Jon,

Were you asking which tool you should use, or asking what happens when
you define the same variable in both tools?

An ENC sets global variables, "parameters".
A manifest uses data from variables/parameters.

Puppet won't let you redefine or duplicate a variable or resources so
in that context if you "throw these two into the octagon" to try and
redefine a variable/resource then nobody wins. You loose.

On the other hand, as Felix has pointed out, the ENC is simply a way
to define data outside your modules. Something that Heira does very
well too. You want to take data out of your modules and use an ENC
and/or Heira. So again, an ENC and modules do different things so
throwing them down together to try and do the same thing is a loosing
situation.
