No, ip routing is fine with multiple ip addresses on the same network.
However, advanced sysadmin skills are required to configure it properly.
Multiple ip addresses may be used to select different outgoing channels
if host is placed behind a device doing src-based policy routing.
In recent Linux kernels not multiple IPs, but even multiple MACs on
the same interface are possible.
