Absolutely, it is a fine line.

I have a related issue.

The current version of the second staff shows where I moved the downstem note away from the upstem's dot so as not to collide.

The old version shows where I moved the downstem in front of the upstem's notehead.

I'm not happy with either; any suggestions?

If one has to be chosen, it would be the "unison1" version for me.
Condensing-wise, you could have Horns I-II-IV together and III alone.

Better to expand the usual I-II, III-IV pattern into I-II, III, IV on three staves, than to introduce a new pattern of I-II-IV, III.

To my eye, the second example was immediately easy to understand.
