As part of this thread, several people have mentioned that one of the
problems created is "breaking MTU path discovery." Could someone explain
what this means?
Thanks

Let's see...
It confuses troubleshooting because valid routes may appear to be
looping, with the same address traversed more than once.
The addresses can't be resolved with reverse DNS.
It breaks MTU path discovery.
It violates the spirit of RFC 2827 and reverse path verification.
