Anyone running a platform that can't take a full table would apply such a filter to weed out anyone who likes to announce all of their space as /24's for "traffic engineering". If one does that and doesn't announce the aggregate as well, one could find themselves facing random black holes.


People are filtering /24s without a 0/0 route?


I was just referring to LIR boundaries, but yes, I've seen it happen where someone splits their /22 into only /24s and doesn't announce the covering /22.
