I see nothing which forbids them to announce more-specifics, so on
what basis would anyone want to punish (and how)?

The PSC /33 (not a /34!) seems more like a mistake as GRH sees only
paths _11537_5050$ for both the /32 and the /33. Perhaps some weird
kind of traffic engineering internally or with private peers for
special purposes, and the /33 leaking outside of the Abilene cloud
(however this can be defined).


Best regards,
Daniel
