samba - Mar 2017 - different shares use parts of the same path - is this allowed?

I can't speak to what the best practice is, but I have some shares that are
set up like that from before I started working there. No major issues as
long as samba was not setting the permissions differently

hi everyone

something like this:

[big]
path = /data/big
writeable = no

[my.big]
path = /data/big/my
writeable = yes

[your.big]
path = /data/big/your
writeable = yes

is such a configuration healthy? What are possible negative implications
this may cause, if any?
ver. 4.4
many thanks,

I thought, that would be well tried & tested subject. And 
that samba docs would themselves cover the subject of 
"conflicting" paths, but I sroogled and find almost 
nothing.(or my sroogling force is weak)
