Chain loading means you can allow each linux to automatically manage grub.
Sharing /boot means you can forget about having them automatically
managed.

Of course I must admit I have never installed multiple linuxes on
one system.  I can't see any use.  If I want to play around and try out
a distribution I will use a virtual machine.  I just never reboot so
why would I want to have two systems to maintain where somethings work
in one and some things in the other.  Just not useful to me.
