If you have a peer that is dropping more than others, weight them so they are the lowest priority to the world. Internally youll have a minor blip but the world is gonna do its own thing. We announce all our prefixes as /24 so we can jack around with them more granularly, so if you have a specific set of customers this is more impactful to you can weight them to the reliable peers, but at the cost of path quality
