L3Out : pro/con for adding several devices to same node/interface prof

Good morning all!
Looking at that pic and at this link

 

I can add different devices to the same node profile and interface profile if i don't need to change BGP parameters as seen below.


Moreover I can see i can "add" several subnets belonging to several devices even if they are connected to different couple of leaves.


A dear Cisco colleague has told me it doesn't change much, but what are the pro and cons of having just one node and interface profile instead to configure a new one for each device ?
Of course the devices i need to "add" belong to the same goal i need to reach.
What are the best practices in 2024 ?
