It isn't (even without a complete mesh).

Asymmetric routing is commonplace and normal, if you need a chokepoint to
apply some sort of network policy (load balancing, firewalling, etc.) you
need to make sure that you make it a chokepoint both coming and going, and
if gear can't handle the next-hop (or even the interface that it uses) may
be different for transmitted and received traffic, then bug reports need
to be filed.
