Mixed Business Premium and Enterprise Licensing - limitations?

Hi all,

Hoping someone with experience or deep unpicking of Microsoft licensing spots this. 

We recently stumbled into the pain point of Defender for Endpoint being limited in a tenant if there are any Business Premium licenses present (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/security/defender-business/mdb-faq?view=o365-worldwide#what-happens-if-i-have-a-mix-of-microsoft-endpoint-security-subscriptions)

 

Are there any other limitations applied to tenants or users in terms of feature limitations if there is a mix of Business Premium and Enterprise licensing in place?

Given the arbitraty limitation applied to Defender for Endpoint I would expect there to be similar compliance limitations, maybe storage, auditing, and other areas?
