Comment:

 I will overload this ticket by adding another thing we should fix to
 improve code quality: We could use the probability distribution structs
 directly instead of the generic `circpad_distribution` abstraction, to
 reduce the possibility of messing up prob distr parameters like we did in
 #29527. Also see Riastradh's comment in
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/29527?replyto=13#comment:13.
