No.  Too many problems with scenic routing due to lack of BGP communities to control route advertisements.

Also the usual lack of full table issue due to route suppression on their transits based on AFI.

I’m sure it works well for many people, but if you are large enough you need to do any form of TE the lack of BGP communities is a major issue.
