Firstly, please don't use distribute lists. This is very archaic and
prone to mistakes. Suggest you migrate to prefix lists right away!

Not the first one in the list, not the last one, not the biggest one or the smallest one, but just one route from the middle of the list. I don't get this behavior at all. Cogent cleared and bounced bgp to us, and still received only that one route in the broadcast from us.

After you've fixed your filtering with prefix lists, you need to ensure
that any "network..." statement is backed up by the presence of the very
same route in your IGP (which includes static routing).
