this is why you see aggressive use of "new" exits by various parties
who are interested using in Tor exits before they get listed. they
write their own controllers for the purpose even...

as for impact, the majority of complaints i've seen are from
individuals who run an exit from their home and have trouble accessing
email, other services once identified as a Tor exit.  most hosting
providers don't seem to care if your IP gets listed, only if you're
sending abusive traffic from it that is reported to them.
