I agree with everything you say. But it doesn't answer my question. ;-)
Think in terms of basic routing: how does RTF ping RTD? There's no entry in
its routing table for 192.68.12.0. As you say, there wouldn't be an IGP
running between RTF and RTD. No way to ping between them, therefore no BGP
relationship will be established, even though there's a neighbor statement
in both routers' configurations. Therefore, a static route would have to be
in RTF and RTD's config, right?

There would not be an IGP running between F and D or F and E. F only has a
neighbor statement to D to allow it to establish a peering relationship with
it. The neighbor 192.168.12.1 ebgp-multihop statement in F's BGP routing
process allows this to work. There would not be a 192.168.12.0 network in
F's routing table unless D has the statement 'network 192.168.12.0' in its
own BGP routing process allowing it to advertise that network to other As'.
