> > Authorities are only chosen as middle nodes, because they don't have
any other relevant flags.
> What forbids DA to become guard? As I know, usual fast relay with big
uptime doesn't have an option to continue to be just a middleman, i.e., to
not get guard flag.
They don't have the Guard flag.
> > Only one of the 10 (dizum) has the Fast flag. So the others will be
ignored by most clients.
> Good point. As I remember, nodes without Fast flag are not used for data
transfer. Do you mean there can be some old clients which behaves
differently?
Yes, and some custom clients, and some clients that are configured
differently.
