 See #4641.

 hurt people who do turn it on.  I know that I forgot that I was using
 tor2web mode at least once while I was testing it.)

 build" issue?  I *think* only developers should run into that one.  One
 option, I guess, would be to change the binary name when we're building
 for tor2web.  But that won't do anything in the case where you start it
 running, then forget about it.

 I can't think of any solution to that problem, other than ‘don't test
 tor2web mode again’.
