I see what you’re getting at, and the behaviour to prevent attacks I suspect 
that you’re thinking of is the default.

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5575#section-6

Roughly, you only use flowspec routes from external networks if they are the 
best path for that prefix.

There’s an I-D that updates this to relax it a little so it can be used if you 
have multiple eBGP peers between two ASNs (which is obviously quite common).
