we where talking about AS awareness in the context of traffic
accounting for relay operators, feels like you jumped to another
topic - namely overall AS diversity or AS diversity specifically for exit traffic?
(which is fine, I just want to make sure I understood you correctly)

When talking about AS diversity, absolute numbers don't tell much
unless you put them in context to other absolute numbers or you switch
to overall fraction.

there aren't many ASes that hold a bigger exit probability fraction than 
OVH SAS (AS16276) - currently just 2, so I wouldn't agree to  
"OVH is lacking exits when compared to other ASes"
