​I think ​it should be pointed out that there is difference between sound
operational reasons and simply bad network design.

If someone would deploy in a network route reflectors (and in fact also
routers) from multiple vendors (let's be brave and say 3 or 4) probability
that all implementations would go down on given trigger is highly reduced -
perhaps to the extend that no outage would occur and no one would propose
to make BGP state persistent ;-).

Here my only worry is that we are stretching protocol(s) to cover for wrong
choices of network architecture.

Best,
