Can I ask why you terminate peering and transit on different routers? (Not
suggesting that is bad, just trying to understand the reason.)

Easier policy enforcement for us.

Lowers the chance of you dealing with traffic in ways you don't intend

Spreading both commercial and technical risk, depending on whether you
value transit more than peering, or vice versa.

Avoiding kinky things with VRF's.
