I apparently wasn't very clear. In the layered approach to multiple
vendors, you would (obviously) choose your layer definitions to avoid such
delicate interdependence.
Regardless of my failure to fully explain, I'm curious as to how mixing
vendors at the same layer is seen to be less problematic

Apologies, I can't resist. :) Sometimes
