[tor-talk] Why does parameter "StrictExitNodes" exist?

[Green Dream]

By default (i.e., StrictNodes is false) Tor will bypass your declared
ExitNodes if it needs to do so in order for traffic to reach its
destination. Imagine the scenario where all the exit nodes in your
ExitNodes criteria have strict exit policy and they have no way to route
your traffic to its destination. With StrictNodes set to True, Tor won't
ever look for another exit, and this traffic won't be routable.

Going from memory, don't quote me. ;-)
