Comment(by arma):

 Hey, isn't the timestamp in the clienthello (and serverhello), and thus
 visible to external observers too?

 So a) a passive adversary of the client can do this tracking too, not just
 the guard

 and b) if we stop putting (something similar to) the time there, we have
 introduced an "is it tor tls or other tls" identifier.
