It's extremely hard to find RFC which does not contain incorrect
information or practically undeployable data. Many things if reading RFC
anally are not standard compliant, like no one does IPv6 in the world and
no one does MPLS VPNs etc.

I'm repeating myself, but if you reset MED, you do it because you have
reason why you do not allow peer to force you to cold-potato. There is
little point in resetting MED and not resetting origin, as what you tried
to stop from occurring still occurs.
