An mroute is not a static route. It's an override/alternate path for RPF
check. The fact that some brainchild wrote in the DocCD that they are "like
static routes" is incredibly misleading and unfortunately takes a little
understanding to see the difference.
But unless your lab specifically says no static mroutes are allowed, using
them doesn't do anything for normal unicast packet flow.

Subject: static route vs static mroute - silly but important semantec
question
Most labs tell you up front not to use static routes, but does that include
static mroutes? I haven't taken the lab exam yet so I haven't gotten a
chance to ask a proctor this, and I can't find anything resembling Cisco's
stance on this issue.
If answering this violates the NDA then say so and I'll just ... wonder
quietly.
With a few exceptions, secrecy is deeply incompatible with democracy and
with science.
