.... and averaging across all Route Views collectors that are sending
what could be considered full tables[0], we get 758108... but this
isn't actually a useful metric - it doesn't reflect, well, anything...
More useful are the metrics are the "Active BGP Entries" graphs like
https://bgp.potaroo.net/as6447/

But, then again, this also isn't really a particularly useful metric
-- a more useful metric is "Does the total number of routes *that I
need* actually fit in the equipment *that I actually have*" - anything
else is just counting angels on a pin.
Yes, I'd like it if my cisco AGS+ could still take multiple full
feeds, but then again I'd also like it if my Commodore 64[1] could
stream 4K Netflix -- the world has changed, and tables grow, etc.

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad
idea in the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair
of pants.
