Do anyone have any number on the scale of the problem as in how many
out of those ~2000 are only referred to a few times, or maybe just
internal referred toward another returned ASN?

I would guess that there are some of those that are referred to more
than others, and others have very few and easy to figure out the scope
of. I know this will very likely be a manual process to verify this
but the job probably has to be done sooner or later.
