Comment (by arma):
Right, a relay needs to be (among other things) in the top half of relays
by time-known, or they automatically qualify wrt time-known if their value
is at least 8 days. But, it isn't *really* 8 days, because the time-known
value for each relay decays over time. The comment next to it in the code
says it's around 20 days, but I think that's probably wrong.
You can see the various thresholds that each directory authority is using,
from the flag-thresholds lines in their votes:

There is some debugging of the time-known tracking in #19162, but I think
it's safe to say there are some dragons there. But bigger picture, yes,
it's a matter of days, not months.
