Bird handles OpenBSD route priority differently

(compared to native OSPF daemon.)
Test lab: just two routers with OSPF on both: A and B.
OpenBSD 6.4. Bird 1.6.4p1.
Router A has two default routes installed:
Routing tables
Internet:
Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Mtu Prio Iface
default 192.168.69.36 UGS 0 353 - 8 vio0
default 192.168.69.37 UGS 0 0 - 12 vio0
bird> show ospf state all
area 0.0.0.0
router 192.168.69.34
distance 0
network 192.168.69.32/29 metric 10
external 0.0.0.0/0 metric2 10000 via 192.168.69.37
external 192.168.69.32/29 metric2 10000
Higher priority 12 is of a lesser significance, so kernel prefers
default via .36.
Trying OpenOSPFd it's seen that theirs OSPF also prefers default via
.36 in its advertisements.
