This probably is a terminology thing. "on the same subnet" and "servicing
the same subnet" aren't the same thing, to me. I am not talking about
electricly connecting both NICs to the same segment ("on the subnet"), but
rather each NIC having in independant segment (physically), with machine IPs
coming from the same subnet pool of addresses (but being unique, of course).
