 > In the interest of forward progress, here's another question we might
 try to answer: what's our testing plan here? If we rarely hit the "need to
 go past 24 hours" mark, then changing our behavior in that case will
 produce untested behavior. See also #4580.

 changes in the testing tor network?

 Hmm - suffice to set up a client, let it get bootstrapped and grab a
 consensus, then use iptables to block all outgoing connections on the
 dirport so it can't download a new consensus?
