that was/is kindof orthoginal to the question... would the sidr plan for routing security have been a help in this 
event? 

SIDR is intended to provide route-origination validation - it isn't intended to be nor can it possibly be a remedy 
for vendor-specific implementation problems.

Validation storm-control is something which must be accounted for in SIDR/DANE architecture, implementation, and 
deployment.  But at the end of the day, vendors are still responsible for their own code.



Indeed, we can expect new and exciting ways to blow up networks with SIDR.
