Better to use 'ebgp multihop' and peer to provider router's loopback.
Then have equal cost static routes to provider's loopback via the two
physical interface next hop IP addresses.

also like
to load balance the outbound traffic.. I've considered adding
'maximum-paths
2' to install the two equal paths, but an concerned about FIB TCAM
impacts.
Will adding this command cause each equal cost route to take one
additional
TCAM entry, i.e. full routing table x 2 > 524k TCAM limit = EPIC
meltdown?
Current FIB TCAM:
