I've known people at Cloudflare talking about doing something like this for 2+ years, and the goal has been to do something nice for Tor and to make it easier for normal people to adopt Onion networking.

I think that it'd be a great idea for more companies to adopt Onion networking, as outlined in my video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rd7YKamsliI

That goal is not helped by people jumping into the conversation with implausible scenarios that are not even grounded in reasonable common sense. 

And: if there are arbitrary limits which could be practically exploited to "Br1ng Tor D0wn!!!1!ONE" then I am pretty sure that they will be exploited by the state security apparatuses of the world, well-before actual legitimate usage will reach them.
