I don't think it is implied here, but just for clarification this is
implementation detail. Loose and blackhole route does not imply this
behaviour, It might, it might not, depending on vendor/implementation.
JunOS by default considers null route as loose path satisfied, and you
need 'set forwarding-options rpf-loose-mode-discard family X' to
behave like you explain.
