Point-to-Point network in ospf for loopbacks for VXLAN BGP-EVPN

Hello Community,
I hope this finds you well.
I am have enabled ip pim sparse mode and ip ospf network point-to-point on physical interfaces. But I have enabled ip pim sparse mode only on loopbacks and no point-to-point on these interfaces. What I have observed is that when I do sh ip morute I dont see anything in outgoing and incoming interfaces on vteps and spines.

But, as soon as I enabled point-to-point network I can see the outgoing and incoming interfaces. So, is this suppose to happen? I am using nexus 9kv image and doing vxlan lab using bgp-evpn.

Is this 9K virtual or Physical device ?  for OSPF you need Physical interface to peer.

yes technically that is expected as you describe.

check below guide help you understand the requirement :
