Comment (by arlolra):

 > What about slightly different positives?

 The circuit visualizer is showing the OR address for the router, as
 reported in the consensus, and check is showing the exit IP, as discovered
 by TorDNSEL's exit scanning.  Ingress vs egress.  There's no requirement
 that they be the same thing, but I can see how it can be confusing.

 Consolidating the two might involve doing a self-check in TorBrowser to
 discover its exiting IP (querying some "what's my ip" service), and then
 updating the circuit visualizer.  But that seems less than ideal, and it's
 unclear if this is even desirable.
