That's great news, the FBI has enough info on me. I don't need them know who I bought my wife from too.....

Wasn't the idea that Tor was supposed to be always hardened anyway?

No, Tors concept was to keep your anonymous.
Hardened tries to encrypt the traffic, not just diversify it's source.

How anonymous could it make it if it didn't keep it secure?

Considering it bounced most request between 20 and 300 random locations in the world for the original address, I'd guess pretty well secured.
But you could just chase the hops back to it's source eventually, so they are adding encryption to it.
Which is pretty awesome.
