I had a similar conversation with somebody insisting these things are
called 'stuck routes'.   8)

And while i agree naming confusion is not good, what i care about most
is that we understand this phenomenon better. GRH project ended years
ago, and still we see the phenomenon, not only in IPv6 (which was GHR
focus), but also IPv4!

has (my bad that we don't have the alternative name mentioned in the
paper (

I've made a reference to the alternative names in the RIPE Labs post.
