The main "other" reason i was thinking of is that the ip addresses of
Tor relays, especially exit nodes, are blocked from many services such
as IRC and Wikipedia, and by third party filter software.  The
knowledgeable relay operator can work around this of course, but the
rest of the household may not be so flexible.

Two other problems, easily remedied with a little money:
1) cheap home internet connections are not usually allocated a static ip
address so your relay may not accumulate enough uptime to get traffic
routed to it.
2) home internet connections typically have much faster download than
upload bandwidth, and your relay is limited by the lower one.

The fellow in Seattle gave the police his passwords to avoid having all
the hardware seized.  Again, is that something you want to risk for the
other denizens of the house, or your own other equipment?
