    correct

    I've seen cases where one BGP link really never is the best interface
    (with a pair of 'big 3' ISP's) where one of them was never the best route,
    it turned out on investigation that our connection to them had 5 more hops
    then the other one, even to other locations within that ISP. a bit if
    yelling (and a few threats to move business elsewhere) finally got them to
    fix the problem.
