2.8 BGP: Med is Non-Transitive versus no-export?

$

I have a doubt about this configuration.  The SG uses the MED attribute to BB1/BB3.  As others have discussed, it is possible to use other attributes (i.e. local-pref), but let's go with the SG solution. We will use the MED attribute.

My understanding is that MED is a Non-Transitive attribute.  So, like local-preference, it should not go beyond the next AS.

However, the SG is also using no-export to keep it from passing to other AS's.    Isn't this a redundant command?  Is there a need for no-export?
