If you would like to see something change, it would be a good idea to go to https://trac.torproject.org, create an account (or use the cypherpunks one), and open a ticket stating facts such as

dynamic IPs
- your reasoning for why teor's 4 bullet points about "advantages to
resetting when a relay's IP address changes" are not valid
If the Tor Project really said they want relays with dynamic IPs, maybe the wording needs to be modified. I imagine, for instance, they might have said dynamic IPs are good for bridges.
Also, Rana, perhaps your set would be more valuable to clients as a bridge than a relay?
But that's a problem for clients when your IP address changes, because they then lose access to your bridge.
(Unless they ask the bridge authority for your new descriptor. I'm not sure if that code works the way we want it to - I don't know how often we test it.)
