This is a wee bit of PEBKAC on my side.

The ASN there is a peer ASN, not the origin ASN.

As such, as the above selection of ASNs are providing transit for AS112 their ASNs as-peer, would be transiting those AS112 prefixes.

Now that the AS112 origin for 2a0b:4e04:6666::/48 is gone, the transit prefixes that bgpq4 outputs are also gone and... we are all good :)


Thanks Mihail for resolving so quickly!
