Comment:

 What, what?

 I'm sorry if this seems harsh and abrasive, but why did I bother to bust
 my ass for the proposal deadline if everything I suggested was just going
 to be ignored in favor of reactionary ifdefing?

 I suggested an alternate plan here (needs merge again, btw):
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/mikeperry/torspec.git/blob/path-bias-
 tuning:/proposals/209-path-bias-tuning.txt

 On the other hand, if you just want to disable random features that can
 mess up the network if the directory authorities go rogue on us, you
 should also ifdef out the circuit build timeout code, the bandwidth
 authority voting, EWMA, the perconnbwrate stuff, and probably about a
 dozen other features too.

 Either way, I think your commit needs some revision.
