Exactly Aaron. No provider will allow a customer to null route a source IP address. I could only assume that a null route on Michel's network is tanking the packets at their edge to 192.0.2.1 (discard/null0).

Thanks, but what if the attacker is many... like thousands ?  ...isn't that typically what we see, is tons and tons of sources (hence
distributed....dos) ?

Look at Exabgp : https://github.com/Exa-Networks/exabgp
That's what I use in here : https://arneill-py.sacramento.ca.us/cbbc/ to inject the prefixes in BGP.
I block the attacker's addresses, not the victim but if you are willing to write your own scripts it does the job.
