Comment(by arma):

 Replying to [comment:18 karsten]:
 > '''Roger''', please note that I assumed you want to cut out relays based
 on consensus weight, not advertised bandwidth.  Please correct me if that
 assumption is wrong.  (Writing the analysis script for consensus weights
 is probably easier, so we could later extend it to advertised bandwidth if
 required.)

 The Fast and Guard flags look at descriptor bandwidth, not consensus
 bandwidth. So yes, eventually we should do a version of this analysis that
 looks at descriptor bandwidth.
