I have a hub linked into the micro modules for a far more mundane reason than Homekit. When I first put them in years ago,I needed to configure the switch options for momentary contact in several of them and for 3 way toggle in another and doing it by button press after being wired into a tight junction box or blind sends of raw insteon commands was not working... And I left it in place to have a separate and parallel notification path for the leak sensors and smoke bridge if the mac failed. The devices work fine being linked to both controllers (unlike Z-waves) except that commands sent from one controller are not acknowledged to the other; but since I never send anything from the hub other than the initial configuration commands, that's not an issue for me. But it obviously would be a deal breaker for sending commands from the hub as homekits, since Indigo would not be informed of the status change... the same problem with X10s that can change the state of a closely linked lamp without the X10 command reaching the far away powermodem.
