Well, according to the IE solution you can. (150.1.3.3/24 and
150.1.4.4/24 on the endpoints of the tunnel) I haven't labbed it yet,
I'll quickly change my tunnels to match their solution and see how it
works.

This brings up a question....Since the tunnel is specifically being used
to extend area 0, and the tunnel must have both ends in the same subnet.
Doesn't this tunnel have to be an assigned ip address that is on the
same subnet (both ends of the tunnel)? And, this subnet would then have
to be assigned to area 0. Can this even be done with ip unnumbered?

Be sure to read the wording of the lab carefully. They may (or may not)
allow you to create additional IP addressing within a certain scope, as
needed.

Using ip unnumbered to a loopback isn't all that great of an idea, as
your
loopbacks will generally be in different subnets.

Using another subnet address is extra commands and is not a good idea.
That's my opinion.
