Seeing the same thing - shut a peer, still seeing those routes via
3356 across multiple route-servers & looking glasses.

So, do we disconnect 3356 and suffer the blackhole in hopes that it
will eventually withdraw those routes, or leave it on to prevent
blackholing but suffer massive packet loss to other carriers? Wow.
