Correct, which is all correct of course.

Nothing. You are asking DHCP to do something that you shouldn't even do
manually. If your machine is on subnet 10.0.9.0/24 it is illegal for it to
have a route to 10.0.1.0/24 via 10.0.1.254. It is up to the router at
10.0.1.254 to know how to get packets destined for the network 10.0.1.0 on
their way there. Your machine only need know "if it's not on my subnet
(10.0.9.0/24) then my gateway (10.0.9.254) knows how to get it there".
Keep this general routing table rule in mind: The gateway address of
*every* route in your routing table should be on the same subnet as your
host.
