Self referencing isn't nasty flaw, it helps users prevent errors
by simply listing all their nodes. Also sensible was to sort the
entire string such as by '| sort' on unix. Both which can help
downstream eyes and parsers.

Here's another util MyFamily setters should run on their descriptors:
egrep '^family ' | egrep -v '^family( \$[a-zA-Z0-9]{40})+$' && echo fixme


There was many threads about MyFamily on list below recently.

Since Tor Project does not admin well to provide good true raw
useful archives to import into your MUA, you have to fetch
and concat the mailman poorly autoredacted months manually :(
After that you can search threads easier.
