How is that list generated?
I'm not aware of any tight coupling between address assignment and AS
assignment that binds anybody to advertise particular routes with
particular origins, at least at the time that either is assigned/
allocated by an RIR/LIR.
Without such a coupling, would a report along the lines that you
suggest implicate the advertisement, or the "whois record" (whatever
that means)?
