Straight from Mikrotik mouths EOIP is resource hungry, VLPS uses less resources, Also EOIP its easy for a PTP, try a PTMP with 50 sites!
A no, traffic does not go trough our NOC, BGP on our NOC its only used to advertise the MPLS Labels trough the Network. Traffic goes out via established IP OSPF connections between sites. Remember VPLS its L2 via L3 connections, but more versatile and scalable than EOIP BTW: how would you do a 4 site EOIP Mesh? Gino A.

And then MT releases next ROS and it all breaks lol No really, I love all of their products and use them all as well, but I would not dare use the fairly new functionality you just deployed on your network myself. Aside from that, I'm into learning and making things better... Having said that, why do you see your scenario a much better implementation than say - a router EoIP tunnel between sites that need to talk to one another. Thats what I would use. Why? Because it only take a sec to configure on each customer router that needs to talk, has no iBGP or any other overhead traversing the network, has been implemented in ROS since the beginning and only tunnels traffic that needs to go between the sites - no broadcasts etc (unless I want it to). Correct me if I am wrong... but your implementation for hooking up - say 4 customer sites - would cause all the traffic between those sites to traverse your core router. My implementation scenario would only cause routed traffic to go directly between required sites more efficiently.
