Since AS577 keeps coming up in this discussion. They certainly could 
have adjusted their routing during this event if they felt their 
customers/business were being negatively impacted.

If it didn't meet that threshold, who are we to judge what is good for 
their customers/business??

The Internet is not something you can provide total quality assurance on
while many organizations have various definitions for words like 
"total", "quality", and "assurance".
