CIDR doesn't work as it should. We had to inject all of the more specifics of 194.45/16 cause Sprintlink isn't able to handle CIDR routes correctly.
Can someone explain this a bit more? This sounds like a showstopper for CIDR.
I have noticed some similar problems. MCI routing breaks if you provide them with an identical path at multiple interconnects if it is advertised to them at equal cost, hence they always like to see MEDs. The most straight forward way to solve the problem is to announce more specific's, like you say. It's not the only solution, but it's one.
