BGP-routed subnets *are* announced via BGP. Tunnel-routed subnets
are announced via RIP and the manual gateway/encap file.

Wasn't saying they were not announced, merely that those in use should be (larger blocks via bgp, small subnets via RIP) and if they are probably should not be stepped on or used without coordination with the party primarily allocated that block/subnet. one or more SWIP servers with a requirement that all who are allocated address space keep their contact info current would likely be quite useful here.
