 By using the last hop of introduction circuit as RP, we can save the time
 spent on creating rendezvous circuit and transmitting establish_rendezvous
 cells (by combining introduce with establish_rendezvous cell).

 A malicious hidden service will be able to link introduction circuit with
 rendezvous circuit anyway. So at first glance, I don't see any issue.
