Sorry - my bad, I thought of OnionBalance in general setups first (and
that the bottleneck becomes the guard that also handles other clients)
and mixed up in my mind different setup scenarios.

HiddenServiceSingleHopMode 1 ensures that the hidden service server
connects to the introduction points and rendezvous points directly,
without going through a Guard, so there's no bottleneck here, case in
which there's no need for an extra bridge relay.
