Note that in both cases, b0rken-noc takes a single call, so their
load is unchanged.  The second case adds a call to both my-upstream-noc,
and b0rken-noc-upstream-noc.

It would seem going direct would put a lower load on NOC's in general,
which presumably would let them spend more time on problems and provide
better service.
