Comment:

 This isn't a bug.  It's up to each Exit Relay operator to decide on their
 Exit Policy, and the Exit Policy included in "tor, the application"
 doesn't reject either of those ports.  Thus, this is a configuration time
 issue that needs to be addressed by talking to said operators.

 (I don't think "please consider changing the recommended Reduced Exit
 Policy" to be something appropriate for this component, but it's not
 immediately obvious to me what to file that under.)
