It seems if I were one of their customers they would accept my
66.11.168/23 announcement and re-announce it to their peers, but they
won't accept it from any of their peers.

Announcing a covering /20 along with the regional more specifics I have
will only serve to increase the size of the routing table for most
backbones, and lead to sub optimal routing in some cases since I'm
announcing the more specifics due to geographical diversity.
