This is not entirely correct. Only single hop neighbors will count the 
received OGMs and also count the re-broadcasted OGMs repeated by its 
neighbors. Then they derive the TQ from that which is then propagated through 
the network (plus hop penalty and asym penalty).
In other words: N1 will never count the OGMs originating at D.
