Well-maintained prefix / asn filters work well up to a certain size, but no further. Poorly maintained filters break connectivity in ways which surprise and amaze. Operationally there is an intersection of operator clue, network size and peer network size where prefix filters can work really well, but thar be dragons outside that intersection.
