Comment(by Sebastian):

 The dirauths need to do reachability testing etc. Whether they're used to
 actually distribute the consensus to bootstrapping clients and the rest of
 the network is highly orthogonal I think. I don't agree with your most of
 your plans here on this ticket, I think, because you do not address this
 issue. Publication to the dirauths has never been the problem.
