Comment (by arma):

 Agreed!

 For posterity though, the version cutoff for where clients started using
 the ORPort, i.e. for when we deployed the begindir design, is 0.2.0.22-rc:
 {{{
   o Major features:
     - Enable encrypted directory connections by default for non-relays,
       so censor tools that block Tor directory connections based on their
       plaintext patterns will no longer work. This means Tor works in
       certain censored countries by default again.
 }}}
