On Mikrotik, if you put vlan 40, say, on interface 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, but don’t 
actually bridge any of them together, or trunk them on layer 2, they’ll never 
see each other.

On a MT? 

AFAIK, the VLANs on one port are not connected to the VLANs on another port. In 
other words, each VLAN is like a new port.

You could then bridge ether1-VLANxyz to ether2-VLANxyz if you were so inclined.

Will I break the internet of things of I reuse the same vlan ID on multiple

This is solely for simplified deployment of site routers since it turns out I 
need my OSPF subnets on vlans so I dont have to keep track of a billion vlan 
IDs as well as a billion /30s

 

The ports would not be bridged, just share a VLAN ID

 

I assume this is a big No No, more curious on the impact of doing so
