Exactly what I thought.

for what?

I think that some sort of soft barrier might be advantageous to keep them from rubbing during heating and cooling, but I've found pex to be robust when touching other pex lines in open air. Under concrete might be different. Give it a barrier or cushion to be safe.

Dr. Egon Spengler said "don't cross the streams" (movie reference most of you probably know...)
