Suppose a request from A is targeted initially at B, this is mapped to C, and then to registered contact D. The UAS (D) puts Privacy: history in the response, and therefore prevents A learning about C and D. Fine.

Now, supposing D is not registered at the time, i.e., there is no registered contact for C. This results in a 4xx response to A. How do we ensure that the identity of C is not disclosed to A, in line with what is achieved when D is registered?
