From an operational perspective, knowing that a given prefix *did* arrive
at the local router, and was then dropped (= hidden) for a specific reason
is very valuable. Without that information, you can only guess "did my
peer send it at all?" and troubleshooting *this* means "talk to people
outside your organization" which is way more time consuming than just
looking at hidden prefixes.
