Whether that mix suits you depends on what you want to own; this is a description, not advice.

How is ETF overlap calculated here?

For every company held by both funds we take the smaller of its two weights and add them up. The weights come from the full holdings files Invesco and iShares publish, not a top-10 sample, and companies are matched by their ISIN so share classes stay apart. Sector overlap applies the same rule to the issuers' sector labels; "behaves like N equally weighted stocks" is one over the sum of the squared weights.
