Comment (by naif):
The risk that could be considered is that end-user will download a "Faster
version of Tor" that's the one designated for Tor2web use.
To protect against this risk we can limit such release, in order to focus
only on NON-end-user.
End-user Tor = TorBrowser (of which is probably =>90% is Windows/OSX) .
A Linux Tor binary, that let you only connect to TorHS, it's not something
that end-user would be able to download and use:
- Because is not for Desktop computer (Windows/OSX)
- Because allow to connect only to TorHS
So, those set of release/packaging feature would protect end-user from
misuse, making this Tor release suitable only for Tor2web use (or for
experimenting).
