uRPF still has it's place in access.
We use it in single homed customers and one of the reasons is the limit to the number of acls.
Asr 1ks are 4k unique acls IIRC , but you can put a lot more users on them.
Maybe things have changed since I last looked but this was the main driver for us to use uRPF when we started with 1ks.
