Comment (by atagar):

 Oooh, I see. Ewww, that is unpleasant.

 This is a bug then that is indeed impacting Stem. Presently it assumes
 that the ns methods are giving us RouterStatusEntryV3 instances, but
 sometimes it's RouterStatusEntryMicroV3 instead. That would actually
 explain some confusing behavior I saw a while back.

 For now I'll have Stem check UseMicrodescriptors so we can start providing
 the write instance types. Thanks for bringing this to my attention!
