Exactly. More generally, we have a number of different reasons for de-aggregation, and for our problem to go away, we have to have something for each (significant) reason.
There is indeed work in the SIDR WG and in the RIR and operator communities in securing routing advertisements. But it needs to be deployed. Also, if we come up with a "split" routing model where there are "core" and "edge" routing tables, we need to provide the security mechanisms currently being developed to both of these parts.
