My point was that using a DNS name like "example.com" in this case has
another implication, that it is using real DNS
and thus is not a tor/onion connection. I just want to make sure that for
all uses of "example.com", it is indeed going over
the regular internet and not over an onion connection.

I personally think it is useful too to say like acme-server.example.com to
convey better what the example entry is used for.
