Are we not splitting hairs? ASmap makes you disconnect/not connect in the first place to a set of nodes, which is defined in the dat file.

Maybe it's not technically an (ip) ban, but the dat list acts de facto as a "shun list" the way i see it.

Please correct me if i'm wrong.

That is not what it does, it just tries to be diverse across different asans. It's not a shun list.

Ok i see, but what's and how things are getting clustered into a certain AS is important. These are all just heuristics; for instamce just because several nodes share the same AWS region doesn't mean they are one AS, and that you shouldln't connect to more than one.
