Let me know what you think! Perhaps you have other ideas here of how we should approach this issue.
Fix #23817 by implementing a failure cache and going to a fallback if all primary guards fail. I think that would be a solution for #23863 as well.
And if a few fallbacks don't have the guard's microdesc, mark the guard as down. It's likely it's microdesc is just not on the network for some reason.
Hey Tim! Please see https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/23817#comment:6 for an implementation plan of the failure cache concept. If it makes sense to you, I will try to implement it this week. Cheers!
