Is that a public client?

We had to add some controls to deal with concurrency and additional complexity + performance penalties. And for such clients, I was not sure whether or not rotation makes sense.

I don’t think this is new as RFC6759 already required ASs to check this binding. Assuming backends are generally confidential clients also means no rotation and no cache synchronization needed.

>>> Rotation should be used for frontends, e.g. native apps and only if there is there no other option. If a refresh fails, the app must go through the authorization process again. That’s inconvenient so the question is how often this happens. What I can say, I have never seen customer complaining in several years of operation of ASs with refresh token rotation (including replay detection) for native apps with millions of users.
