Comment(by arma):
My conclusions remain "I don't see any huge roadblocks to having bridges
that are just vanilla proxies. We should deploy them if we can make them
usable, and maybe someday somebody will show us it was a bad idea."
Similarly, for #3292, we should support "I don't care what fingerprint my
bridge claims to have".
This discussion ties into Sebastian's blog post:
https://blog.torproject.org/blog/different-ways-use-bridge
If you're using a bridge for reachability rather than security, we should
remove as many barriers to continuing to use the bridge as we can.
