Edit: if you do use separate HV and sweeps, there is a danger of sweep failing and HV staying up, which I think could burn a nice mark into your expensive or unobtainable CRT.
Good points. One thing to consider on the last one is that separating the HV from the horiz does not create the risk of burning a line in, it merely doubles the existent risk, which stems from independent vertical sweep failure.
