And just to be clear, BGP4 routing is not highly meshed. I happened
to look at the potaroo.net data yesterday.

86.3% of active autonomous systems are purely originators of
routes (stubs), 13.4% also provide transit, and 0.3% are pure
transit systems. 42% of autonomous systems originate only one prefix.
