Right, I think that it could be good. But it's not obvious that it would be good while it would definitely add complexity, bugs, and attack surface, and discourage at least some people from using Tor.

I think this is essentially what the Tor Project wants to see instead: if you're in a position to do so, operate your own relay and make it your entry guard. That adds capacity for the network and helps you by mitigating the risk of connecting to a malicious guard.
- j45 3y agoI feel it would be a good choice to give users rather than force all users into it. Not all users stories are the same. You’re right as well as this is one way it could be, and there could be other ways. Tor might want to see that, but I’m not entirely sure how well it’s going when hosting exit relays can be an issue for the hoster.
