You (AS11875) have an operational need for good connectivity

in selecting an inferior pathway into 3356, and what you
SHOULD have done is to select an IP transit provider who
has an optimal AS-path into 3356 to meet your operational
need of having good connectivity into 3356.

Sophistry. I buy IP transit from 3 providers, one of which has a 3 AS
path to 3356.
