It's weird because nobody asked us, whereas the IP assignments clearly
point to us (and the meeting even happened in a space I am responsible
for)...

Agreed. I had a longer discussion with nifty around diversity some time
ago, but ultimately it is up to individual operators. I have no reason
to doubt the legimitate interest of nifty to simply support the Tor
network. There used to be times when single operators were in control of
80% of the exit capacity, and we worked hard to get it more diversified.
There is a lot of room for improvement, and other networks like OVH see
even more Tor traffic...
