I also considered bringing up that point, but then I actually looked it up[0]:

> Tor relays are also referred to as "routers" or "nodes." They receive traffic on the Tor network and pass it along. Check out the Tor website for a more detailed explanation of how Tor works.

How does that change anything? The point is that a relay isn't an exit node, so there's no reasonable reason to block them.

You don't seem to understand what the terminology is... exit relays are relays.

> There are three kinds of relays that you can run in order to help the Tor network: middle relays, exit relays, and bridges.

There's dictionary definition and there's typical usage. When people say relay node, they typically don't mean exit nodes. Not 100% correct, but the assumption is common.
