Because you do not want to destabilize link state protocol. Even in
the area.
You do not want to compute SPF immediately at each link flap.
But you do want to signal to remote guys a hint (remember UPA is a
hint not a solid state) that paths coming with this next hop should
be discouraged.
I think you and Les may be thinking of UPA as solid state PE
unreachable "pulse". For me however signalling issues (even if
transient) about local PE liveness is more important and has a
value.
Many thx,
R.
PS. In fact that mutlihop session between ABRs and local PEs could be
smart and fail when there are some issues with data and control plane
on the box outside of BFD path and BFD components. Obviously outside
of OSPF or ISIS as well. In other words link state get's signalled to
ABRs that some less specifics have fever and those ABRs in turn issue
a UPA or SPA (suspicious) messages to remote guys.
I am not seeing it as local area trigger must be IGP native even if
further flooding would be.

Why is it ok for N * multi-hop sessions to run over this
crappy-link at millisecond rates, but *not* ok for a single link
local session to do the same?
Thanks,
Chris.
