Comment (by nickm):

 Actually... ug.

 If I'm analyzing this right, the current behavior is just plain ugly. It
 takes the router status information, not from the node_t (where "our
 current opinion about the router" should be), but from the networkstatus_t
 (the thing we downloaded, which used to get modified with our opinions of
 node status, but which now is treated as immutable since we did the node_t
 refactor).  And then it writes it in the old, pre-microdescriptor
 format...whether it's microdescriptor data or not, so the microdescriptor
 digest.

 Yuck yuck yuck.
