Comment (by dgoulet):

 My two cents. This is something I'm not too excited about and I've
 expressed my opinion here on this thread:
 https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2016-December/042794.html

 IMHO, that won't make user safer in the way that they think it might.
 Removing at compile time code that enables that feature is not going to
 achieve that. Tor we'll still have capabilities for 1-hop circuit... Tor
 will still have a function in the code asking "am I a single onion" which
 compiled in code or not could have a bug...

 Having such an option would create more unstable code because it will get
 less tested overtime because it's a compiled in option not living with our
 evolving code base.
