This seems right to me. I know a fair amount of philosophers and at least some varieties of them seem to naturally disfavor compartmentalization.
For example, I was originally an atheist for purely methodological reasons. Religion invites dead dogma, and dead dogma kills your ability to discover true beliefs (for exactly the same reason “0 and 1 are not probabilities”). I felt therefore that adhering to a religion while being a philosopher was professionally irresponsible.
