That's actually a terrible example, as AU/NZ both have rules requiring entry on their respective passports, and not permitting the grant of an ETA (or NZeTA) to citizens.

As a dual citizen of AU and NZ, cross country travel is a gigantic pain - have to have passports of both countries, and show both passports at both ends, because neither country can grant a visa to a citizen, but both countries must still validate right of entry. Sometimes you can wing it, sometimes it all falls apart.

It may very well be an issue. Not necessarily an insurmountable one but still.
