Comment (by karsten):

 Yes, this has to do with inconsistent family definitions and #16599.  The
 question is how we want to include relay family information in Onionoo,
 and that doesn't so much depend on what tor clients would do but more on
 how that information would be used by Onionoo clients.  Suggestions:

  - `family`: contain all relays that a relay considers to be part of its
 family, regardless of what those relays think about this relay.
  - `effective_family`: only contain relays that have a mutual family
 relationship with this relay.
  - `extended_family`: include all relays that can be reached by following
 mutual family relationships.

 I hope to hear back from Onionoo client developers what fields they would
 need.
