my point is that controlling LFA on a per-topology basis makes perfect sense.
(as per your example above (non-congruent topologies), to save some number 
crunching).

what does not make sense is: consider we've deployed IPv4/IPv6 in the default
topology (integrated IS-IS model) - to turn off LFA for V6 routes.

you have done already the number crunching, so why would you want
to make IPv6 routes a second class citizen here ? - 

can you highlight the use-case here ?
