 My relay path was using two members of the same family. PPTOR0006,
 PPTOR0014. According to Atlas they are in the same family:

 This was discussed on the tor-talk mailing list:

 "It looks like PTOR0014 has the Unnamed flag. I wonder if Tor clients are
 disregarding it because it's not named by fingerprint in the descriptor,
 and because it has the Unnamed flag rather than the Named flag.
 Seems like a bug."
