If he were aggregating it, yeah.  But when your local subnet is
really only 192.168.1.0, no.    You should use the correct mask
for what your network really, even if you can get away with using
the wrong one.  There's certainly nothing to be gained from doing
it anything less than completely correctly, especially when you don't
even have the bad excuse of saving effort by doing it wrong.
