The IPs of TOR exit nodes are publicly known. I'm not sure people using TOR are aware of how the concept and peer discovery mechanism works.

I mean, at some point you gotta ask yourself why cloudflare shows all TOR users a captcha in a targeted manner :)

Because exit node IP address' are known, you have just said it.

How does it have anything to do with user fingerprinting? And how does it answer the question of @gtsop asking whether different users of ToR web browser have different distinguishable fingerprint or not?
