On the other hand, almost all people doing this are doing something
wrong. ;-)

And that's _almost_ all of course. Someone very skilled might have a
legitimate purpose for doing exactly this, but OP (and people like me)
are not among those.

I'd say stick to prefix-lists and then when you can write route-maps in
your sleep from arbitrary policy wishes, but still can't solve a given
problem with prefix-lists _then_ look at using access-lists. :-)
