Comment (by teor):

 Replying to [comment:2 s7r]:
 > I think this is not worth the effort because it will not achieve
 additional security in any way. The 1-hop circuit capability will remain
 in Tor, just that you won't be able to create single hop onion services
 which you would anyway need to add not one but two torrc options in order
 to make it work, torrc options that are long and explicit and most
 probably acknowledged from a manual or tutorial among with other clear
 explanations.

 Tor introduced with the single onion services feature, and might be used
 accidentally or buggy with regular onion services. They always existed and
 will continue to do so even with this option.

 Single-hop circuits have existed for directory fetches and Tor2Web for
 quite some time.
