AIP and SharePoint don't mix well, still. Yes, you can apply labels to documents and even libraries, but the problem is that any file that is protected by AIP label directly will be rendered inaccessible for any server-side SPO processing. So in effect, you will loose search, co-authoring, Delve, even eDiscovery.
