Note that when a RP at an autonomous system A learns of a source S at another routing domain B, then the RP at A joins the shortest path tree of S rather than joining the tree of the RP of B.

Assume instead, that a RP, when it learns of a source at another autonomous system, it joins the tree of the RP at the other domain, rather than joining the tree of the source.
This of course can lead to loops, see the picture attached, in which the RP's of two autonomous systems join the trees of each other.

How could we prevent the data from these sources from going around in a loop from one RP to another?

Note, The RP may or may not be border routers.
