 Replying to [comment:2 teor]:
 > I don't understand what the issue is here. You linked to a very large
 comment in a ticket that is closed as fixed.

 I meant the comment6, specifically:
 << If any of these things are true, do not put the relay in the bandwidth
 file:

     there are less than 2 sbws measured bandwidths
     all the sbws measured bandwidths are within 24 hours of each other
     there are less than 2 descriptor observed bandwidths
     all the descriptor observed bandwidths are within 24 hours of each
 other
 >>

 > If #27338 is fixed in sbws master, then we should ask the dirauths to
 upgrade.
 >
 > If #27338 is not fixed in sbws master, and the difference in reported
 relays is significant, then we should fix it before sbws 1.0.

 It is fixed in master and in 1.0, which has been already released.

 > If the difference in reported relays is not significant, then we should
 lower the threshold for this alarm.

 Right now the threshold is 0.8
 (https://gitweb.torproject.org/doctor.git/tree/consensus_health_checker.py#n807).

 If we lower that to 0.7, there won't be alarm. Sounds this solution
 reasonable?
