If you meant EXP bits are taken to account during ECMP, then that could
reorder the microflows, because in E-LSP the EXP represents both PSC and
drop precedence. 

If you didn't mean that, then putting PID in the EXP would not cause any reordering.
Off course there would be some issues if the bottom label is of uniform model.
