receive hosts and domain security credential usage

In our environment I have created two receive hosts (Receive Host and Receive
FTP Host), one containing only the FTP adapter, the other containing all
other receive adapters. Can anyone elaborate on the implications (security
or otherwise) if I use the same domain account for both of the hosts to run
under (each service would run under the same account context)? Is it
acceptable to use the same account?

I am creating a separate receive host for FTP since I want only one instance
running on the host per the high availability guide, but not sure what’s the
best methodology relating to the domain account usage and segregation for
each host created.
