Agreed. Unless BGP bestpath selection considers (event-driven) NH liveliness check, the blackholing problem would continue.

    For first party nexthops, BGP timers can address this to some extent.
    
    BGP timers are too long, hence BFD.
    
    For third party nexthops, you can have persistant bad forwarding.  Normal
    BGP procedure doesn't help you here.
    
    So, we agree that the case isn't given good attention in the core specs.

    The new SAFI is targeted specifically for the RS case and hasn't received
    specific consideration for other use cases yet.  Feel free to kick off that
    as a topic, although I'd suggest doing so separably from the rs-bfd thread.
