Michael, how are these two statements not in agreement?  It looks to me 
like you're saying the same thing: A network which claims "tier 1" status 
by failing to buy any transit, subjects its customers to connectivity 
failures when depeering happens, while a normal multi-homed network does 
not inflict that failure upon its customers.  Isn't that what you're both 
saying?

dunderheaded or offensive, for which everyone has my apologies in advance.
