Mixing data plan using same TLV may lead to forwarding issue. if you do so it 
is required to upgrade all the node in the network which is practically not 
possible.  Hence Different TVL for IP flex algo required.

as I said, we can not mix metrics for different data-planes.

please read the draft. It defines the flex-algo for IP data plane.
