Regardless of whether the Pi’s firmware can actually be updated or not – it’s probably not good for diversity to run the whole Tor network on a single kind of device: we don’t want every relay in the network to be compromised when a single flaw on the Pi is found. Performance might also suffer, though I hear it’s gotten better with the Pi 3.
