[c-nsp] Does traffic routing through a PE get an MPLS label added/removed?

IMHO, you're right. Just consider the VRF-lite feature (especially on 
low-end routers where there is no MPLS support), there is no LFIB built 
and no MPLS mechanism used.
I don't see the purpose of adding/removing label on the same box whereas 
the routing decision done by CEF with the FIB is sufficient.
