Comment (by juga):

 i think the main reason why this is happening is because:
 - #33831: relays without observed or average bandwidth in the descriptors
 are not scaled, but still added to the bwlines without vote=0
 - relays without that bandwidth in the descriptor but bandwidth burst
 (dunno why they have bandwidth burst and not the other, but i've seen it
 happening), would scale against bandwidth burst, which is higher
