Ah, now I finally understand what you're saying. Yes, it is indeed true that, for some very odd reason, you must have some kind of TED enabled in order for TE to work in IOS. However, what you can do is create explicit paths that ignore the TED. But it is indeed the case that if you have no TED, the TE tunnels will drop, even if those tunnels do not use the TED.
