He did not deny routing, he denied the availability of providing full routes.
There's a difference.

If he's getting a connection from Sprintlink, he can only accept the routes
that he wants, and can then default through fONOROLA, and thereby load
balance.

I don't think that looks anything like denial of service.  It may not be
the preferred method, but it certainly doesn't make them unusable.
