Comment:

 I think it's foolish to make a network-wide decision based on local
 control port properties.

 Even if a randomized DH modulus is bad for fingerprinting, if it's good
 for PFS, we should just use obsfproxy to remove visibility of it.

 rransom: Were you just testing us? Was that the answer you wanted? ;)
