The recent major fix for #17772 inspired reflection on the practical effect considering relay weighting. Knowing nothing about it aside from the graph lines shown by Atlas and Globe, I thought the change might make little difference as Guard Weight would mostly prevent non-guards from being considered.
However, per dir-spec and the current consensus, it seems that middle relays have a weight equal to guard relays when guard selection occurs: Wgd=0 - exit as guard Wgg=6065 - guard as guard Wgm=6065 - no-flag as guard I would like to understand the purpose behind this.
