It seems all the discussion of the problem is happening here and not on the issue, so I will propose my alternative solution here:

I know folks have been resistant to changing state based off receiving an acknowledgement of a packet/frame they sent, but what if we changed how the RetirePriorTo works, and just required the packet containing the frame to be acknowledged, instead of requiring the RCID to be sent? Would this solve the problems?

This would mean the receiver of the NCID shouldn't have to track any additional state beyond what it takes to acknowledge the packet (which they have to do anyways); it just immediately throws away the state. And the RCID packet would only be used when the endpoint that was given the CID chooses to retire it.
