Can AWS workspaces share subnets?

The docs state:
"You can choose to share one subnet across multiple workspaces or both subnets across workspaces."
as well as:
"You can reuse existing security groups rather than create new ones."
and on this page:
"If you plan to share a VPC and subnets across multiple workspaces, be sure to size your VPC and subnets to be large enough to scale with usage. You cannot reuse a network configuration object across workspaces."
 
But in the Account Console UI when I try to add a Network Configuration, I read:
"you cannot reuse subnets or security groups between workspaces".
 
Which one is correct?
 
(note: this is a duplicate of this post, but as I don't have the right to edit that and move that to the category "Administration & Architecture", I had to re-post.)

Hi @spd_dat,

I will check with the team internally and try to replicate the same in my workspace. This should be possible as documentation indicates. Based on the error you are hitting, could you please share the configuration you are setting in your account console? just cover sensitive info. Are you using same public VPC or Security group?

Hi Alberto,

I receive the below message right away after I click "Add network configuration" here, without setting any configurations.

(I didn't try, however, to ignore that warning and actually set shared subnet or security groups yet.)
