Well the tool is designed to prevent you being fooled by people
injecting bogus routing information. If you wish to continue to
be fooled so be it.
If I was running a ISP I wouldn't want to be in the position of
explaining why I was accepting bogus routes when I have the way to
reject them.
The agreement is that if you run the tool and there is a mistake
in the data or the servers are not available that you won't sue
ARIN for the mistake.
