Gya> Agreed that is acceptable. In the description as well maybe listing a
pecking order similar to what is described in Gao-Rexford model style
route preference in the import and export policy verbiage for each role.

operators is to prevent routing policy disputes between peering points
that can result in sub optimal routing instability and feedback loops along
with route leaks mentioned.
