That extra route should not be a problem when there are 800
more-specifics below it.

But, yes, indeed, it should be effectively required that people who do
BGP use something like irrtoolset and run it regularly.

As as you are noticing, people do not update their filters, neither in
IPv4 and neither in IPv6...

Greets,
