I can also imagine improvements to abuse handling systems which now know that they might need to take the route with a grain of salt. We'll see what innovation is possible! > Also, what would the distinguisher be for eg. a route: with > prefix from RIPE and ASN from ARIN? RIPE-PARTIALLY-AUTHENTICATED? Just "source: RIPE" - because it is authenticated following the chain from RIPE to inetnum holder to mnt-by/mnt-routes. That the ASN comes from ARIN (or wherever) is irrelevant, just like with RPKI.
