Wouldn't there have to be something on the other end to determine if
traffic can get to you? I was still taking some traffic, just Google,

You can have it pull the BGP advertisement or set no export or prepend
a bunch or other things ranging from suggestion to absolute.
In this case, if the optimizer noticed that you weren't available from
a given connection, it could have (depending on the optimizer), set no
export, then if the reachability issues persist after X minutes, drop
the session.

Is there any benefit for an eyeball network to use route optimization

This is only the 2nd time this has happened. Last time was 4 or 5
