On a side (but related) note, while I don't mind asymmetric forwarding,
asymmetric (or more contextually, inconsistent) routing is a real PITA.
Asymmetric/inconsistent routing combined with strict-mode uRPF is mega
bad for business. See origins of this thread.
Asymmetric/inconsistent routing with loose-mode or no uRPF is
acceptable, albeit not ideal.
