We have to route to peers who are
a) core enough by the default settings, or
b) at least as core as we are (with core being some metric
quantifying local long-term-high-bandwidth-ness).
That way no one will ever know whether a given node is a core node to the next
node down the chain - which also defeats the “you sent me a high HTL request,
so it’s from you”-attack.
I don’t see a use in having global knowledge of core-ness.
Best wishes,
