Tor2web is a way to use Tor for Tor2web improving performance:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/2553

You need to enable it at compile time with --enable-tor2web-mode .

It remove the number of hops required to connect to a TorHS.

That's because in Tor2web threat model:
- the client accessing the TorHS resource is not anonymous
- the server exposing the TorHS resource is anonymous

so there is not need to "enforce tor client anonymity" in that use-case.

Now imho there is the need to have "volounteer python hacking" on
Tor2web 3.0 code to work on that set of issues
https://github.com/globaleaks/Tor2web-3.0/issues .
