Hi,

Reading the RIPE91 slides from James in search for justification of this
idea behind this draft it seems that the real issue is that some Tier1s are
overwriting ORIGIN Attribute.

So if anything I would suggest to open a github ticket towards RFC4271bis
to make change in section 5.1.1:

from:

Its value SHOULD NOT be changed by any other speaker.

changed into:

Its value MUST NOT be changed by any other speaker.

Regards,
Robert
