 commented on !#4771] that we should be also tracking the "successfulness"
 of each distributor:

 > I would define success of a distribution strategy as a function of how
 many people are using the bridges that are given out by that strategy.
 >
 > That means if a strategy never gives bridges to anybody, it would score
 low. And if it gives out a lot of bridges but they never get used because
 they got blocked, it would also score low.
 >
 > It we wanted to get fancier, we would then have a per-country success
 value. And then we could compare distribution strategies for a given
 country.
 >
 > The intuition comes from Damon's Proximax paper from long ago.
