I noticed same.  Moreover, Apple appears to be reaching 701 over
3356/174 in my neck of the woods, which is not the wisest move, due to
congestion, and thus painstakingly slow transfer speeds.

Null routing 17.253.0.0/16 caused downloads to fall back to Akamai,
where performance was quite snappy.

(I'm not saying this is a good idea, or recommended at scale -- just
sharing my observations.)
