I don't think it makes any difference whatsoever who owns a tree, and whether they are related or not.
What matters is how reliable the data in the tree is (i.e. whether it is actually "right").
What matters is whether a DNA test is linked incorrectly or not at all.
The most obvious problem where a person has two trees and links their test result to the wrong one, perhaps their own tree and their spouse's tree, and accidentally link their own test to their spouse's tree.
There are a number of other issues though. I have one instance for example where I have three DNA matches, all managed by the same person, all linked to the same tree, though none of them is the owner of the tree, yet all three matches are exactly the same - same cms, same number of segments, same longest segment, same other shared matches. All I can assume is that the owner/manager has linked the same test to three different people.
Another issue is when the home person of a linked tree is not the person who took the test. My own most frustrating example is a match who might be a link to my closest and most impenetrable brick wall, my great great grandfather George Shannon. Currently, about all we know about him is his name and that presumably he was in Ireland in the mid 1830s since his daughter Esther Shannon was born there about 1837. I HAD a possible match that might link to him - and then I didn't. To cut a long story short, this match keeps changing - I have since figured out that the owner keeps swapping their DNA test between two trees, which I assume are a maternal and paternal pair. The problem being both have long since dead relations as the home person, so whoever else DID take the test, it wasn't them.
Short version - as long as the DNA test is linked correctly to the right person in the right tree, there is no issue. The problems arise when it isn't.
