No.

Well, the aggregate content of the page provides all the data, right? No need to duplicate it so it is in each "itemscope" statement.

I don't see it as wrong at all. It is just that it would break *if* you were trying to mix two different vocabularies.

It makes it harder to copy/paste a particular piece of code - so there is a maintenance issue, and preferred style is probably to use the itemscope as locally as possible for thins reason, but that's really a matter of workflow, style and maintenance.

In my opinion, of course
