What about guards that have low consensus weight due to latency, rather than available bandwidth?

I think this could also cause you huge latency issues as you push more bandwidth away from fast relays. I'm not sure if shadow captures this accurately.

FWIW, Shadow does accurately reflect latencies, assuming you supply a realistic network topology file and used relatively recent Tor metrics.
