That would be no problem at all, anyone who wants to use two faced DNS
deserves whatever evil befalls them.

The real problem with never doing reverse lookups on site or link locals
(assuming that there is a need to do reverse lookups at all, for
anything) is for sites that are disconnected, where site locals, or
even link locals, are all the addresses that exist.
