In practice, you're correct, that's the way it appears and the way you
should think of it. Technically, it actually does the ip forward setup
and looks for the outbound interface before doing policy routing. Why
policy routing comes after routing and seemly overrides it (which is
correct) I don't know but that's the way it's written in the code (I
checked my cheat sheet hanging in my cube of what comes before what.
