You said:

Your own traceroute clearly shows that your host is not directly
connected to the AMS-IX. Nor does the KPN datacenter it resides in. The
AMS-IX has 4 datacenters where members can place equipment which can be
directly connected to the AMS-IX:

- GlobalSwitch;
- Sara;
- Nikhef;
- Telecity2, Kuiperbergerweg;

Every statement otherwise is bogus, nonsense, crap or whatever term you
prefer to use for this.
