In Soviet Russia, it's quite usual that you have a only IP over Avian
Carriers (RFC 2549) and unusual that you have fibre to your home.  Not
that much relays are located in Soviet Russia. It's
 not just a question of frustration of owners connected via avian
carriers but also a matter of bandwith waste and diversity. If Tor
cannot handle avian carriers properly a lot of bandwith is not used. And
bandwith and diversity is something that the Tor network can not get
enough of.
