You're missing the point. It would be trivial for a multibillion dollar organization to sybil attack Tor if you add excessive restrictions.

If you look at the numbers isis posted, all relays below the median contribute less than 3% of the overall bandwidth. I think cutting all of them off might be overkill, but even if you did, you would not make a Sybil attack appreciably harder.
