Comment:

 I'm with rl1987 -- the reason I designed it this way is so you can have
 bridges in your torrc, but control whether to use them with the usebridges
 option.

 (I seem to remember another ticket along exactly these lines, which I
 commented on some years ago. Perhaps it got closed as wont-fix, so it's
 harder to find?)
