Reserved labels are very much a utility of last resort. There are only
16 of them to last us the whole life of MPLS, so that should only be
used when there is no other method.
It is not a good idea to probe the network to discover a capability, it
is far better to know it through a property of the routing protocol.
That way you can match the path to the set of capable LSRs.
