 > 1. Should I make `ExitRelay` a `bool` and make its default value `0`, or
 keep it an `autobool` and make it where the default value is based on
 whether `ExitPolicy` lines exist?

 You need to keep it an autobool, because changing it to a bool would break
 existing torrcs.

 > 2. If `ExitRelay` is `1`, and there is no exit policy line, should I act
 as if `ExitRelay` is `0`?

 No, you should log a warning and exit.

 > 3. If Question 2 is yes, can I implement a setting called
 `DefaultExitPolicy` with the default exit policy (that we normally have if
 we say we're an exit but don't have any specific exit policy) like we do
 with `ReducedExitPolicy`?

 The default exit policy is the default when ExitRelay is 1.
