+ except if the N first sampled guards of these clients are unreachable.
+ Implements recommendation from 32088.
+
+ Proposal 310 is linked to the CLAPS project researching optimal
+ client location-aware path selections. This project is a collaboration
+ between the UCLouvain Crypto Group, the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory and
+ Princeton University.
