Btw even with eBGP between TOR and compute I have just checked and I see

Link between TOR and compute is passive IGP link/subnet.
that's what I thought would be the case. And in such case the IGP
solution would work for you.

Hi, Robert:
If you use iBGP in your mentioned scenario, how to propagate the
reachability of BGP nexthop? I think it is impossible to use again
BGP itself. Then depend only BGP can’t solve your problem.
If the underlying using IGP to propagate such reachability
information, we have mechanism to control for which covered prefix
to send the notification when they become unreachable. It is not
randomly suppressed.

In such cases I would rather consider implementing pulse to be
less then host route.
Suppressing them randomly may lead to even bigger disappointment
of unreachability propagation hence delaying connectivity
restoration to a backup path.
Many thx,
R.

we can certainly address such case by not allowing thousands
of pulses
to be generated in case half of the universe falls apart. That
seems
obvious and easy to implement.
