Throwing my support behind continuing the experiment also. A singular complaint from a company advertising unallocated 
ASN and IPv4 resources (the irony) does not warrant cessation of the experiment.

The experiment is in compliance with the relevant RFCs, the affected “vendor” has released fixed software and announced 
it to their notifications list. I can only hope this and future research continues.

Sad to hear! :/

My impression if you continue is more users will get aware of bugs with
running BGP implementations. Not all follow announcement from $vendor
and will continue to run older broken code and complain to $vendor about
errors with the software.
