Why is the network 2.2.2.2/32 preferring the next-hop 192.168.1.10 even though the next-hop 192.168.2.22 as-path is shorter?

BGP table version is 2, local router ID is 1.1.1.1

Bruce Davie published a nice article explaining why it makes little sense
to use an algorithm that’s supposedly faster than Dijkstra’s in link-state

The path through 192.168.1.10 is coming from the same confederation and is not accounted for. So they are considered as if having the same as-path length. And since the local pref is higher for 192.168.1.10 it wins.
Thats right
This could cause you headaches while troubleshooting if you are not aware of what is happening.
