If ... my regional joins a CIX, then why would I want my regional
to sign an ANS gateway agreement?
Because (at last report) ANS hadn't joined the CIX, and the CIX
members hadn't signed an ANS agreement. There are thus two disjoint
sets of commercial connectivity: ANS and the CIX. If you want to get
legal packets to sites on each, you need to connect with both.
