Thanks, folks.  This detail has been helpful.  Glad it's now part of this list's 
archive.

Just to summarize what I think got said:  I had understood that the operational 
net could only support one backbone.  What I am now understanding is that the 
issue was manual vs. automated addition of backbone /routes/ and that BGP made 
the latter possible.
