Section 7

       leaf enable-hairpinning {
         type boolean;
         default "true";
         description
           "Enables/disables support for locally forwarding
            (hairpinning) traffic between two CEs.";
         reference "Section 6.2 of RFC7596";

Is a global toggle sufficient or would there be cases where more fine-grained control would be needed?

A+P is designed to reduce as much as possible the per-subscriber state at the network/BR. Requiring fine-grained control would require some extra state to be maintained, which is not desired. Having the general parameter is sufficient.
