Comment(by naif):

 What if we would use:

 * "Host unreachable" when introduction/rendezvous fails
 * "Address type not supported" when lookup does not work

 The "Address type not supported" seems to me enough unusual to happen but
 enough "similar" in a possible interpretation of "Tor HS not found" ?
