My observation with this output seems to mean that it will send the route to the peer, after the peer is brought up.  Basically a configured but currently-down peer will get sent this route.

Those peers were not actually receiving the route.  Removing and re-adding the static route to null0 caused the route to be advertised to (and received by) all the peers that should have been getting it. This was seen on an XMR-16 that had been upgraded from 5.2.0 to 5.4.0 just a week or so prior.

Am pretty sure I have seen limited similar flakiness with new/readded statics getting advertised properly with 5.4.0c, but believe it was IPv4.  Are they members of a peer-group?  I found that you have to go both "peer-group blah activate" and "neighbor <ipv6> activate" or it wouldn't send any routes, period (the neighbor was establishing just fine).  Same wasn't true for IPv4 peer-group members.
