Yes, I am aware we can prepend it, though it seems strange this is not default behavior.

So for the routes originating in AS20940, downstream will not be aware of AS20940 in the as-path it will only know private AS4290006033.<br>

Yes, that is true. I would add that one is not supposed to have different<br>
local ASNs for different BGP instances that form coherent BGP router,<br>
unless it is configured as BGP confederation or manually patched by<br>
filters.<br>
