     These options override the default behavior of Tor's (**currently
     experimental**) path bias detection algorithm. To try to find broken or
     misbehaving guard nodes, Tor looks for nodes where more than a certain
     fraction of circuits through that node fail after the first hop.  The
     PathBiasCircThreshold option controls how many circuits we need to build
-    through a guard before we make these checks.  The PathBiasNoticeRate and
-    PathBiasDisableRate options control what fraction of circuits must
-    succeed through a guard so we won't warn about it or disable it,
-    respectively.  When we have seen more than PathBiasScaleThreshold
-    circuits through a guard, we divide our observations by
-    PathBiasScaleFactor, so that new observations don't get swamped by old
-    ones. +

     By default, or if a negative value is provided for one of these options,
     Tor uses reasonable defaults from the networkstatus consensus document.
-    If no defaults are available there, these options default to 20, .70,
-    0.0, 200, and 4 respectively.
