Ty-wrapping is fine as long as you treat them like conductors in a raceway. De-rate them correctly and the heat will be a non-issue.

1. It's a neater job regardless of the wire being solid/stranded.

2. Who cares about the next guy in your panel? It's yours not his.

3. Wire management has been prevalent in Commercial/Industrial work for decades.
