The problem described below might be clearer from this copy of a screen
grab showing three in-country relays appearing in the bottom-right list

I've recently started seeing pairs of in-country nodes in the network
map. I recall reading that that for security reasons only one node in
each country would be indicated, except when a circuit

(node1 country A) -> (country B) -> (node 2 country A)

was being depicted.

Do the depictions of wholly in-country circuits

(node1 country A) -> (node 2 country A)

indicate a problem?

I believe I've started seeing these after starting to run a (normal)
bridge. - eliaz
