    While making these changes, we want to preserve tor's existing behaviour:
      * resolve Address using the local resolver, if needed,
      * ignore private addresses on public tor networks, and
-     * when there are multiple valid addresses, choose the first or latest
-       address, as appropriate.
+     * when there are multiple valid addresses:
+       * if a list of addresses is received, choose the first address, and
+       * if different addresses are received over time, choose the most recent
