How do the bandwidth authorities treat a hibernated relay? Does hibernation effectively lower the consensus weight (CW)? If so, and even if the lower CW is temporary, would it then take longer for the CW to climb back up once the relay is out of hibernation?
IMHO it seems simpler to just throttle it evenly over the month (RelayBandwidthRate). Then you have a nice, even CW throughout the month, and the relay is consistently utilized to its potential.
