By not allowing it to change you have a stronger assurance in that the server has to have a key.

Having just implemented Retry (yeah, it is like that...) I don't see any advantage either side of this from an implementation perspective. Either way, the server either holds state or puts the odcid in the token. The client implementation is very slightly easier and more efficient if the key doesn't change.
