> Can you say more about why you don't see this as an issue? Is it because this use case is most likely during the handshake? Or is there some other linkability already present that makes this less of an issue? regards, Ted

Both, actually.  This occurs during the handshake, when addresses are required to be stable.  Unless you're running a large number of parallel connections, all CIDs used on that 4-tuple during the handshake belong to the same connection with very high probability.  You can break that linkage by deliberately changing CID and port at the same time, but you can't do that until the handshake is confirmed.  If you want the linkage broken, you need to do that jump post-handshake anyway.
