Comment(by rransom):

 Replying to [ticket:6489 proper]:

 > Use cases:
 >  * Tor user, especially hidden servers want to reserve some free non-Tor
 bandwidth for other things (software downloads, updates, non-Tor browsing,
 etc.).
 >  * Tor user has a limited amount of traffic available in it's plan.

 You probably do not want to enable traffic accounting on a hidden service.
