Oh yes it is ... in the control plane. Kireeti was very clear and correct separating control plane tables and forwarding paradigms in his statement. Implementation comes to optimize the latter not the former. In other words you better have different tables for SAFI 128 and SAFI 70 in your BGP implementation if you are running both applications. And to reiterate Maria's point if you already have SAFI 128 and the major application is IP subnet interconnect adding SAFI 70 to address marginal benefit of providing EVPN moreover trying to turn it also to help with IP subnet interconnect seems to be clearly going wrong direction.
