This is not a big issue. The issue is when there are say, 10 domains, and each domian carries links to all other domains from multiple pages within each site. Let's choose an example:

10 Sites, 100 pages each.

Each site links to all the others.

Thats 10 sites, with 9 external links per page * 100 pages = 9000 links of questionable benefit to the user.

And that would be a small network. The one that I have an eye on has dozens of domains with hundreds of pages each, and each of those with around a hundred external links per page. You do the maths...
