I'd happily use route-based vpns if they are supported in my use case. Based on Kbs and internet lore, it seemed policy based was the best bet for stability.
My two tunnel endpoint devices are the SRX and a Cisco ASA. On the SRX side I've got a single subnet but on the ASA side I've got two subnets. I would happily use a simple policy on the ASA side like 'permit ip any <SRX side IP subnet> <SRX side mask>' if i was confident I wasn't going to have squirrely issues with connectivity.
