Is there a scenario where an internal flowspec announcement to filter out
certain traffic could have prevent BGP updates from AS3356's edge routers to
get delivered to AS3356's route reflectors, such that even when external BGP
peers dropped their peering sessions with AS3356 that the routing updates
didn't get back to AS3356's route reflectors?

opsec paranoid here wonders about the content of the flowspec
announcement and whence it originated.
