Hyperspeed Gen 2 - Viper V4 Pro and Blackwidow V4

With the Viper V4 Pro being one of the Hyperspeed Gen 2 devices and using the new “dome” dongle, can the multi-device functionality still be utilised to free up a USB port?  For example, since most would want to utilise the 8k polling of the new dome dongle, can a keyboard such as the Blackwidow V4 Low Profile (or any other keyboard) connect to the Viper V4 Pro dongle so that you achieve the best polling speed?  
 

I realise it is usually suggested to connect the mouse to the keyboard dongle.  In the combination with the Viper V4 Pro dongle however, I don’t see why this would be necessary, since the new mouse dongle is clearly faster, with a larger antenna and higher signal strength.  So my query is that with the Hyperspeed Gen 2 mice, should the advice be to connect the keyboard to the clearly superior mouse dongle?  And if that still isn’t the advice, would it work anyway?

Nope, BW V4 LP is not compatible with Hyperspeed Gen2.
