The discussion revolves around ways to achieve privacy by hiding node_id and preventing the linking of multiple HTLCs together. Alice wants to use a different node_id for every invoice to ensure that Carol cannot link the HTLCs together. In order to hide from Bob, Alice can use a different node_id for each channel she opens to Bob and use Tor. The group explores a potential way for Alice and Bob to agree on a set of 256 scids without any additional messages or changes to existing messages beyond a feature flag and a flag in open_channel, but it comes with a computational cost. Instead of keeping a map of 256 scids for each channel, Bob can use a cuckoo filter for efficiency.
