Hi Tonny,
I am not sure if you do not like BGP to take too much unnecessary work. But the advantage of BGP is apparent:
1. BGP should not be used for management plane: Before BGP-LS, the topology can be collected by SNMP. BGP-LS definitely has much advantages in the performance and interoperability and becomes the de facto standard for SDN controller to collect topology information.
2. BGP should not be used for non-routing work. But BGP can be utilized to negotiate seamless BFD information.

BGP already becomes a god protocol :)


Best Regards,
Robin
