Comment(by nickm):

 This sounds more fingerprintable, not less. Previously, both sides
 immediately sent stuff.  Now, the client sends a certain amount of stuff,
 and the server responds immediately after getting a fixed amount of it.

 IOW, I don't buy reason a or reason b as an adequate reason to make this
 change.  So can you say more about reason c ("it's less fingerprintable")?
