There should be no problems doing what you suggest.

This is no longer the case. It stems from (a misunderstanding of?) the
"all zeros" or "all ones" network treatment (and by extension, subnets),
but I don't think any kit behaves like that in these CIDR days. In any
case, 172.16/16 and 172.17/16 are (were) both "full class B" ranges so
anything broken enough to care ought to behave properly anyway.
