I think it comes down to more of an issue of "conflict of interest". Worry that core members will have more loyalty to the project in view of their employers as opposed to the view of the project itself. That risk is increased ten-fold when multiple members are in the same company. It is tough what to say because there are basically two camps: make a rule now to prevent possible issues later on, or not worry too much about it and deal with it if an issue develops.
