Mine: no *), yes, not sure what you mean but probably no.

*) it's unrealistic to believe transits don't exchanges routes.  Else we'd 
have to buy transit from every transit operator in the world.  To be more 
specific, co-operation would be having to set up some special exchanging 
of routes.

Ie, IMO co-operation requirement to me seems simple: do the transits have
to set up or take into consideration something specific, just for this
customer?
