 Uncompressed microdescriptors get 7% longer. Compressed microdescriptors
 get around 12% longer. This shouldn't matter even ''that'' much if we are
 right that microdescriptors change infrequently, and consensuses dominate
 the amount of stuff we download.  We can get it back down to 0% later on
 when we implement proposal 228.

 >Re D, what would be our way to know that we're picking the right relay?
 That one seems tough.

 I don't know what our way would be. I can try to make something up, but B
 seems like a much more solid solution to me.
