Isn't this a little bit like an SSL daemon?  One which refuses to process a=
 revocation list on the basis of the function of the certificate is useless=
.  The revocation list only has authority if the agent asks for and process=
es it.  Would you use this SSL daemon, knowing that it had this bug?

I would consider a transit provider who subverted an ARIN revocation to be =
disreputable, and seek other sources of transit.
