Replying to my own message is bad form but you should also consider that
they have different rules, so not only is there not a numbering conflict,
there is not a routing conflict either. As your 192.168.100.0/22 is in the
private IP space, some additional rules (or exceptions) may need to be
added to the neutron router (but I suspect it doesn't really care if your
provider net is RFC 1918 or not.
