I thought this was desirable behavior for a CGN since effective port prediction facilitates p2p nat traversal?
NAT traversal using port prediction is a Worst Current Practice.
In other words, it works well enough that CGN's predicted total destruction of p2p may be just slightly overblown. In fact, were someone to use those "worst current practices" to build some generic p2p VPN software, even old games could leverage it to allow someone behind a CGN to host.
