I think from a NOC perspective you want flexibility and so I agree on
having two separate maximum prefix for pre and post policy and for both
maximum prefix exceeded being able to drop the peer.   As I stated the
impact is more with post policy with next hop tracker table walk and
control and data plane,  however I do agree that in a case of flood of
routes that the pre policy can definitely have significant impact as well.

+1 more for implementation not for draft

Thanks
