+  - Now that we're avoiding exits when picking non-exit positions,
+    we need to consider how to pick nodes for internal circuits. If
+    we avoid exits for all positions, we skew the load balancig. If
+    we accept exits for all positions, we leak whether it's an internal
+    circuit at every step. If we accept exits only at the last hop, we
+    reintroduce Lasse's attacks from the Oakland paper.
