This influences path selection on the client without too good a reason, it also increases complexity on the dirauths even more. It would also mean yet larger consensuses to make these results public.

It just means that clients don't know that a relay doesn't allow exiting to an individual IP address. The relay in question will still disallow the request to exit there. Cheers Sebastian
