Hi Sergey, OSPF adherents, I think what you are proposing is that ASBR 3 prefers an inter-area path over a transit area over an intra-area backbone path (irrespective of cost). That was solve this problem – trying to think if it would create any. I’ve included the network topology again for reference.
Others, please chime in..

To solve this problem, before starting 16.3, it is possible that all ABR routers (virtual endpoints) should update the cost of routes for all ASBRs (if these routes exist in the backbone area) from all virtual neighbors in the transit area, regardless of whether these costs have been improved or worsened. For example, router ABR_3 first checks sumLSA-4 from virtual neighbor ABR_1 in the transit area 0.0.0.200 and updates the cost for ASBR to 300 in the backbone area. After that, the calculation begins on the router ABR_3 16.3. It is a bad idea?
