Yes that is because 1.1.1.1 was never meant to be publicly routed.
In fact if it was routed or appeared in the global routing tables it was because someone
spoofed/hijacked it or accidentally routed it.
Or that the APNIC was performing some passive tests.
With the IPv4 address space getting exhausted, APNIC begun publishing routes for the
1.0.0.0/8 network in 2010
ago. It was not an accident, but a test. At the same time, prefixes that had never been
allocated and were blacklisted
by default in some router operating systems were made available.
