Hello All;
We had a problem with a domain with two different AS paths in the BGP table, so I wrote a script to look for such problems.
There are two prefixes in the current MBGP tables here with such problems :

As we see in the larger BGP tables (close to 500 inconsistent ASs), not too many ISPs care about this. -Hank

And a total of 488 prefixes in the BGP tables with such problems !!!!!

I could update these regularly if there was any demand.
I may be obtuse, but I cannot see how this could be a good thing.
