There are two networks and one is private (RFC1918) while the other
is public. To do what you suggest, I would need to stop fulfilling
this requirement right?

I do see your point, and you've worded it well. The requirement
of serving private and public subnets seems to conflict with the
requirement of routing hosts on both subnet types over a single
IPSec VPN tunnel.

Because the requirement of having both a private and public subnet
is more important than scalability, then I'm still considering just
adding more tunnels.
