Buffer into Buffered Splitter

Probably an easy/dumb question but what the heck.

I've got a vero build of JHS little black buffer. It's fine, it works, nothing fancy.

It's first in my chain but I'm wanting to split my signal so one output goes to an always-on tuner and the other output goes to the rest of my pedals. Again, probably a dumb question, but is there any reason I couldn't just split the output from the vero to two separate jacks to accomplish this purpose?
 
My guess is that in order to reduce interference or ground loops the better approach would be to add two more buffer stages after you split the signal. That should work better at preventing future headaches. Check out the schematic for Robert’s 3 way splitter circuit for inspiration. Robert knows what he’s doing.
