Alex,

Can you comment if (a) the more specifics are announced from the same AS as 
seen 
in the ROA, or (b) they are announced from a different AS (e.g., customer AS)?
If it is the latter, then even the ROA creation (for the less specific)
is possibly in violation of: 
"Before issuing a ROA for a super-block, an operator MUST ensure that
   any sub-allocations from that block which are announced by other ASs,
   e.g. customers, have correct ROAs in the RPKI." from the origin-ops doc. 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sidr-origin-ops-13#section-3 

As for education, the origin-ops document as well as the use-cases
document (Sections 3, 7) 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sidr-usecases-03 
can be referred.
