I would totally disagree with that. The route shows up in the table as
an OSPF/EIGRP learned route. In addition, if you do not use summary
addresses how then do you propose you redistribute non-natural mask
routes into class full protocols such as IGRP/RIPv1!?

I would argue that an OSPF/EIGRP summary route is more of a "static
violation" than the examples you mentioned seeing as they both install
routes to null0. Default information-originate does not, to my
knowledge,
affect the local routing table- it is the neighbors that learn a
0.0.0.0/0
back to the advertising router.

I feel that the improper use of ip-default network, which creates a
static
route in the configuration, is a trap that will be intentionally laid in
the
CCIE lab. Anyone expecting to emerge with a number should know how to
overcome this issue.
