Comment (by starlight):
Torflow approach on this is correct. Relays may go up and down due to
maintenance, network outages and other normal occurrences. Authorities
detect the state of relays and include them in the consensus as
appropriate. Bandwidth scanners should report what they know absent
current run state. The negative consequence of omitting down relays is
delay in proper rating when they come back online.
