Indeed, it doesn't matter. The "traffic ratio" field in PeeringDB probably should be deprecated, there is no formal definition nor is are there any operational consequences to changing the contents of that field. The contents of the field are entirely arbitrary. If the traffic ratio is relevant (I am not saying it is or isn't), such traffic ratios probably should be viewed in exclusively in context of specific ASN pairings. Maybe between you and me we'll see the dominant traffic direction being one way, and with another ASN pairing we see the opposite. There is no telling other than through observation, any such observations are unlikely to be shared with the general public. Kind regards, Job
