Nope, by design. Routing would generally be better. The entire area would effectively be multihomed to the set of area-ISPs.

There'd be some downsides too, eg where a provider attracting traffic for the prefix has some failure internally and for some reason doesn't withdraw the area-aggregate to ASes wholly external to the area.
