Yes right, but the lookup principle is the same either you look at IPv6 flow label or you look at the Entropy label.

Correct, FAT, Entropy and IPv6 Flow Label are all in principle same, a
way for source node to communicates what constitutes a flow. And in
every case, there is no guarantee implementation has any performance
gains, as implementation may choose to do normal flow speculation in
addition of doing the fast thing.
