it does not change the RF behavior of the Gateway, which remains fully compliant with regulatory duty-cycle limits.

The gateway does not keep track of regulatory duty-cycles, the LNS does. So with two LNSes in control of your gateway you risk not being compliant. As well as having to transmit two downlinks at the same time. Specifically with Helium where the gateway also transmits to provide proof of coverage.

Another potential issue is the frequency plan used by the different networks. If not 100% the same you will be missing uplinks for one of the networks because your gateway can only listen on a limited number of frequencies.

BTW, connecting a gateway to multiple networks has been possible for 10 years and has been discussed numerous times on the forum. The official TTN point of view is that a gateway may only connect to a single LoRaWAN network server.
