I've run a similar set up in a non-prod environment and it works well. There's no need to separate out OS types as the endpoint will determine what SU is required. Create an ADR that is then pointed to a new Deployment Package every 12 months to avoid the limit.
I like to keep things as simple as possible but environments scenarios may not cater for this simplicity.
