Comment:

 Please see my branch bug18816_simplify in which I revert "Switch between
 fallback and authority when auth cert fetch fails", and change the
 comments to confirm that's what we want.

 arma says this is unnecessary complexity, because after #18963, failing to
 fetch certificates only occurs when a connection fails or tor quits after
 a downloading a consensus but before downloading enough certificates, and
 it is a transient issue that will go away with the next successful
 certificate or consensus fetch.
