Different door finishes in same room?

As part of our modern whole house renovation we are replacing all the doors. We're going for a trimless look (sheetrock wrapped in instead of jamb extensions) and chunky jambs. We started out preferring rift sawn white oak with a clear/matte finish, but the cost on these from Trustile is eye-watering across our 7000sqft house. So I was thinking we could save a few dollars by downgrading doors in less visible areas (e.g. the closet and bathroom doors in the kids/secondary bedrooms and our attached ADU and cabana). In those spaces we'd match the jamb detailing but do them as paint grade MDF and paint them either to match the walls or something complementary w the white oak. Wondering if this will look odd in the rooms where the door into the room is RCWO but the other doors (closet, en-suite bath) are paint.


It does amount to a $10-15k savings which might not seem like much in the grand scheme, but with everything coming back expensive, every little bit helps!
