To answer your first question: i see no issue in transporting flow export traffic over the same backbone used to serve customer traffic.
This is not good advice, for the reasons I stated previously in this thread.
Your advice is not "one size fits all". I've done netflow over production links for two very large backbone networks. Over the combined 17(?) years, never saw a problem. If your network is likely to be partitioned by a small number of failures, that might be a different case, but you can't make blanket statements. -Steve
