Comment (by starlight):

 Torflow approach on this is correct.  Relays may go up and down due to
 maintenance, network outages and other normal occurrences.  Authorities
 detect the state of relays and include them in the consensus as
 appropriate.  Bandwidth scanners should report what they know absent
 current run state.  The negative consequence of omitting down relays is
 delay in proper rating when they come back online.
