To be clear, are you suggesting that each relay and each client should
pick some relays from the consensus and exchange chaff with them, and
clients should also exchange chaff with their guards?

If that's what you're suggesting, then what happens if a client wants
to extend a circuit from relay A to relay B, but A and B aren't
exchanging chaff with each other?

Are you saying that wheat can only be sent over links that have been
chosen to carry chaff?
