What if two tinc daemons received the same Subnet but with different weight?

[Bright Zhao]

Hi, Guus

I referre to the two separate tinc process/network(received same subnet),
not Sunbet selection within one tinc process/network.

My understanding is if different tinc process comes with exact subnet, as
they are not related with each other(they have no idea regarding weights
with each other), I guess the routing depends on the host's main routing
table, for specific route it depends on which tinc interface as the "Via"
to determine this?
