 Just to clarify whether i understand this correctly, from
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/28158#comment:13:

 lines that Tor will not currently parse.

 vote on them, in #28563.

 Ok, so i'll add non-eligible relays without `bw` key so Tor doesn't parse
 them.

 > > Other different thing is to report all "eligible relays", even if they
 are not the 60% of the relays in the network.

 So, from 1. above, i'll include all relays (eligible and not eligible)
 without the `bw` key so Tor doesn't parse them, when they're not the 60%.

 Correct?
