I waffled on 11k or 12k... Flying direct it's west, flying via
Miami it's exactly due south of SW VA, but the point I was trying to make
was that it was over 10k. Even/Odd was assumed and irrelevent WRT
controllers routing VFR traffic not in their airspace.

: Class C services are provided to participating VFR traffic in the outer area
: just as they are in the Class C proper, but without conflicting IFR traffic
: they have no basis upon which to move you.

Almost... Even *with* conflicting IFR traffic if you are not in
their airspace, VFR traffic is under no obligation to accept being moved.
No obligation to even be in communication with them at all. If there's a
conlict, the controller's last resort is to move the IFR traffic and
rely on "see and avoid" in VMC.
