There are some routes in the RADB that have been there since folks
experimented with them a year ago.  Part of the process of retiring the
PRDB will be to copy all the routes from the PRDB into the RADB,
watching for conflicts.  When newer information from the PRDB contradicts
older information from the RADB, the PRDB information will overwrite the
RADB.

So yes:  the old stuff will get cleaned up by a somewhat brute-force
process once, the day that the PRDB is retired.

(Soon).
