The challenge is with scale. If I'm a network who has many networks downstream of me I might have 50 to 100 prefix changes in a month. None of my upstream providers are going to like manually vetting all of those - and none of my customers don't want to wait days before their announcements propagate. So there is this sort of state you can land yourself as a "you're a big customer, we seem to trust you".
The reality is that RPKI Origin Validation solves this (but not as path spoofing, we need ASPA for that) and people need to publish valid ROAs.
