Yeah Cisco rep commented that adding LDP to nexus would make ASR obsolete. 48x10g with LDP for $5-7k Yeah no brainer. Although on other point I am not really seeing the value of SR to replace LDP on my backbone. With some scripting and lots of software tools I can make it just like LDP, but why? So break the ease of LDP just to get label switching on my hub core not really seeing it, unless someone has done it and they are seeing the value.

Yes we are considering changing to SR on our backbone because LDP is not supported on the nexus switches. Although, we have no experience with SR and looks plainly simple but we loose some of the LSP path selection.
Got you.
I'm more curious about use-cases for folk considering SR, than SR itself.
4 years on, and I still can't find a reason to replace my LDP network with SR.
Your use-case makes sense, as it sounds like Cisco deliberately left LDP out of your box, considering SR is in. But that's a whole other discussion :-)...
