I am not an expert but I don't think there is an issue with a small
subnet of BGP routes. People running this switch with EVPN design
where BGP is part of stack.

It supports 8k ipv4 hosts, 16k ipv4 lpm, 8k ipv6  /64 or less, 8k ipv6 >
/64 < 128 , 4k ipv6 hosts

everything shared with the other table. Very limited in capacity but if
you can fit within these limitations it's fine.

What do you mean by route filters? (control plane stuff like route maps?)

By route filters, I mean an ACL applied against received and advertised routes. I'm not sure off of the top of my head the terminology Cisco uses.
