Such anti-disaggregation/save-my-TCAM efforts really do not work, and will spawn all manner of support tickets. I'm saying this in the hope that it may prevent someone from reading this thread and concluding that it may be a good idea to try. It is not.
We've been doing this on low-FIB platforms (mainly for our Metro, where we want to hold a full table in RIB and a few internal routes in RIB) since about 2014, and it works - as Scar in "The Lion King" would say - rather well. The only downside is when your IGP and LDP database grows larger than the available FIB. But that's another issue; although not an insignificant one. Mark.
