We are happy with this trade-off in delay for simplicity. Are we breaking some cardinal rule regarding multi-master or is this acceptable? The idea is to have edge servers in each DC that speaks to other DC edge servers and internally things are more verbal.

This is fine.  You don't have to have all masters connected directly to 
all other masters.  Daisy chain, hub-n-spoke, and other topologies are
