Would there be any dangerous downside to booking outbound and return legs separately, one cash one APD (would be departing one day and returning the next)?

Thanks

1. Yes, only 20% mileage earn irrespective of the proportion of $AP used. So poor value for frequent flyers IMHO.
2. Nothing 'dangerous'. Other than earning no SP/$AP on the redemption/award $AP flight. Assume domestic? Not that it matters.
