Part of it also depends upon what you're doing with them.

If this is for a big battles one, they probably ought to be kept in units of their own. A lot of the manufacturers work rather well this way in differentiating units.

If you're going for a skirmish game with a small model count, the variation works and fits human variation without looking out of place as part of the same force.
