Hi, that's not a problem if you think it is. TBB just connects to some entry relay and this particular one listens on port 21. You can see it on Globe [1] or Atlas. Tor relays can accept connections on any port they like. There are people behind restrictive firewalls that just allow to connect to certain ports. It might be that port 5500 is blocked, but a user can connect to port 21. Since relays are public, it's not too useful against adversaries that actually block connections to the Tor network.
