It's an attack vector and it won't disappear until you get rid of masternodes or find a better way for them to create anonymity.

Maybe blind signatures, or

It wouldn't necessarily need a complete redesign to shut that attack vector. All that's needed is to prevent the mixing masternode from knowing which outputs (of the mixing transaction) belong together with which inputs. The mixing peers could do a key exchange and encrypt their own outputs with random mixing peer's public key, and decrypt the others' outputs they can using their private key, and then pass clear text outputs to the mixing masternode.

and maybe add CCT into the mix to remove the need of uniform denominations (this will reduce the bloat radically).

With the "decentralized blockchain governance" funding system coming there will be a hefty amount of dev funding available to implement improvements.

EDIT: and sorry again about posting OT in a Monero thread.
