Yes, some will say that is no faster than stovetop, but I tend to do a dozen at a time and instant pot handles the temp and time with easily replicated results so the time I personally spend is less even if cook time isn't much different.
For broth I typically make chicken from rotisserie chicken carcass, throw it all in with some onion, celery, and carrot scraps, a little salt and pepper, maybe some garlic pieces, then typically nearly cover the parts with water but not totally submerged, cook for max time ( 90 min I think ) slow release and even longer cool down.
Generally not much fat to remove, can do it after cooling if you prefer, I use a fine mesh sieve to catch the bits that floated around the colander.
The broth is much richer than store bought and will tell when cooled in the fridge, like chicken jello.

What time are you using for the eggs? Also what ratio of bones to water do you use for broth? Thanks!

Keep in mind silicone is used for the seal on the instant pot and many other high temperature situations needing gaskets and seals, also silicone is used in other high high temperature cooking applications including spatulas for skillet use, silicone baking molds, "silipat" baking sheets, and silicone coated parchment paper.
Choose whatever works best for you though.
