No, that's not the right one.  GRH wants to see "what people see", so 
everything *received* from the upstream is much more worth for GRH than
"sent to upstream".

"sent to upstream" is only a useful criteria for prefixes generated 
internally (to differenciate between "the aggregate" and "all the 
unaggregated stuff one needs inside the AS, but the world should never
see").
