The only disadvantage of this approach is that you waste up to 75% of the address space (assuming you have one server per customer). If you want to do some really weird things you could configure mismatched subnet masks on servers and routers, use host routes to point toward the servers ... This will reclaim almost all the address space, but result in somewhat more complex addressing and routing.

It's not weird.

If you do it like that with local-proxy-arp then you can have multiple vlans per IP subnet, so you get L2 isolation between customers but you do not waste any IP addresses.
