I'll take the correction if I'm wrong, but doesn't the NEC require
that you
downgrade the circuit if sharing a neutral?
Makes sense..I look forward to learning the answer.

As long as the two hots are of opposite phase, no problem.
Not technically "opposite phase" as it is a single phase service
(center tapped transformer)
OK, the two hots are 180 degrees out of phase with respect to the
center-tap/neutral/ground.
At any rate, if identical loads are present on each hot, there will be
no neutral current.
