New description:

 By the time we updated the bandwidth authority instructions to use 0.2.8,
 the stable release was 0.2.9. And it's now 0.3.0.

 Ideally, we want to use the Tor release in Tor Browser stable (that's what
 most of our users are using).

 But the ~~latest stable~~ long term support Tor release is easier to work
 out, and ~~~they track each other pretty closely~~ it doesn't change very
 often.

Comment:

 The script was fixed in 241ef3a079775a534043e50d2be7ea4afe9ca787, now we
 just need to fix the documentation to say "use a local tor or LTS". I
 think we can do that in #24091.
