Comment (by arma):

 (There's some room for cool analysis here, where we notice that the first
 hop is the fast stable relays, the third hop is the exit relays, and the
 middle hop is the fast not-stable relays (the ones that will be guards but
 aren't yet guards). And the slow relays get left out in the cold. But
 that's already how things work in practice, since we choose relays by
 capacity. Carry on.)
