Now all authorities have `Bandwidth=20 Unmeasured=1`. I guess this is the
reason why they are almost never selected for normal circuits. This could
be done cleaner--as tor options which (1) disable client traffic (for
usual circuits) at authority and (2) disable use of authority on clients
when they create circuits. Requests of consensus, I suppose, just ignore
`Bandwidth` option.

Yes, it should be either documented with proper warnings or disabled
completely. Moreover, it has another bug: `ControlPort` can be specified
more than once in `torrc`, and Tor will listen on all these addresses, but
this behavior is not documented in `man torrc`. All options which can be
specified more than once are marked with a sentence like (example of
`SocksPort`):
> This directive can be specified multiple times to bind to multiple
addresses/ports.
Should we create a separate ticket about `ControlPort`?
