That's a good point with the Tier 2 providers. So that begs the question, why wouldn't I just get my upstream from a Tier 2? (Because my management is under the perception that we're better off with Tier 1 providers, but that doesn't mean their perception is accurate)
The good thing about your upstream being a Tier 2 is that it usually means that if somebody's baking a peering cake, you're not one of the AS's that's suffering. Hmmm... if you're going for a connection to a Tier 1, maybe "peering cakes per decade" is a valid criterion?
