Yes, you could do filtering with Quagga. But Quagga is pretty old tool
without multiple dynamic features. But with ExaBGP you could do really
any significant route table transformations with Python in few lines
of code. But it's definitely add additional point of failure/bug.

Yes, right! But ExaBGP could receive full BGP table, drop some rules
and reflect they to Quagga which could load FIB on the Cumulus.

or you could not bother with exabgp and do your route filtering on quagga.

Nothing wrong with exabgp, btw.  Great product.  It's just the wrong tool
for the job here.
