We might consider whether a Host OLR would also apply to the selection of a next-hop peer, in cases where [B&C] were false. For example, if relay received a Host OLR from Server A, it might apply that OLR to requests it would ordinarily send to Server A, even if the client had not included a Destination-Host.
