   The question I think we ought to care about is:

Is the NLRI from this peer more or less likely than some other peer's NLRI
to represent what a legitimate originator would want me to see?

   All I really have control over is which peer I send to (and thus
which NLRI I forward to my peers). I have no control over what happens
to the packets after than first forwarding step.
