Unfortunately, that's how it's done in route policy on XR, so people bouncing between flavors can easily make that 
mistake.

    I believe we've seen bogus low AS number announcements a few times
    before, and they've usually been caused by attemts to configure
    AS path prepending without understanding and/or reading the docs.
    
    Someone might have wrongly assumed that
    
       set as-path prepend 133711 133711
    
    could be written shorter like
    
       set as-path prepend 133711 2
    
    and there you go...
