Why?  When you have a serious problem with a specific ASN, it's not
unreasonable to drop traffic to that entire ASN.

When you have a serious problem predominantly originating from a certain
country, why is it unreasonable to drop traffic to that entire country?

Just because I own an ASN and participate in the world of BGP, doesn't mean
I *must* accept everyone's traffic from all over the world.  My network, my
rules(1)

(1) my as in the ASN whom choose to drop prefixes for an entire ASN and/or
country.
