It can even connect to the external interface's IP address. At a minimum it should not even know how to connect to the 10.2.0.0/24 network at all.

It seems you are looking for isolated network stacks for jails each having distinct route table etc.
You need options VIMAGE for your kernel and create jails with vnet option (man jail)
to obtain this feature.
