would fix it, and plenty more use cases. So, we'll leave
`OutboundBindAddress` aside currently. I don't know, does
`OutboundBindAddress == Address` unless configured otherwise?
No, the outbound address is left unspecified by Tor unless configured
explicitly by the user. So the OS determines the outbound address, which
can vary depending on the destination (routing table) on multi-homed
systems.
