 if you send me too many create cells in too short a time period.

 Would it be totally crazy for clients to take a look at the
 dos_cc_circuit_max_count consensus param (or whatever we end up naming it)
 from #24902, and try to hold themselves under it when they have some
 control over their circuit load, like in this case?
