[tor-relays] Exit relay not in consensus

I don't think so, I get that message on a dedicated 10 GbE link with little to no use except for the exit relay on it.

Also, if his relay publishes it's descriptor, then why Metrics won't reflect that?

It should show it as online, as you don't need IPv6 to be reachable to get the online flag.
