Running Fusion HCI Hub Cluster on Compact 3-node Cluster nodes

Hosted Control Plane is efficient way of consuming Fusion HCI.
Many clients are asking also to move traditional VMs to OCP to run on OCP.
Also there are more GPU workloads.
This makes us provision multiple bare metal HCP clusters.
We need to dedicate 3x Control nodes for Fusion HCI and another 3xnodes to run HCP Control nodes
If we can run both 3xControl nodes and 3x Nodes together at 3x64c nodes (Compact 3-node Cluster)
This will save cost especially for clients who have minimal workloads on VM

    I Fully support this idea,  a more compact HCI makes sense to smaller customers in the channel rather than for Enterprises only.
