The way you have done it, bandwidth will be shared among multiple

The documentation doesn't seem to indicate that "policer will by default be shared among multiple interfaces" is the case, unless EX is different from mainline in it's implementation of a long-standing knob.

When you configure the filter-specific statement, a single policer set is created for the entire filter. All traffic matching the terms of the firewall filter with the action policer goes through that single policer. The default is a term-specific policer in which a single policer set is created for each term within the filter. All traffic matching the terms of the firewall filter with the action policer goes through the part of the policer that is specific to that term.

So this knob just widens the scope from one term to the whole filter so that you can police multiple terms/types of traffic in one aggregate token bucket, and has nothing to do with sharing policers amongst multiple interfaces.
