Whilst not quite a 1:1 ratio, it is close enough I think to show that this is simply an agnostic relay. However, would not an exit node show unbalanced traffic? Most net activity these days is web browsing which is decidedly asymmetric - small outbound requests result in much larger inbound responses. Won't an exit relay reflect that as it is the last hop before the actual target site?
It'd be balanced by the encrypted traffic to the middle node.
Ah yes, of course!
Thanks
