 Replying to [comment:10 arma]:
 > Or, oh, maybe the worry is that bridges will list other bridges in their
 family line?

 That's not possible, Tor already warns and ignores family lines on
 bridges.

 To close this ticket, we should document that *relays and bridges* should
 not include *bridges* in their MyFamily lines.

 And we should do it in the man page and sample torrc files.
