Comment (by teor):
Those relays have recovered since yesterday.
That's good, but serving a stale consensus for ~12-24 hours is still a bad
thing.
Running a full check in #20501 will tell us the prevalence of this issue.
Some of our 0.3.0 changes might fix this:
* using microdesc consensuses by default (#6769).
I suggest we bring this change forward to 029 as an extra precaution:
* 404 when consensus is out of date (#20511)
