Yes, I've held the opinion for quite some time now that sinks/sources

patches are welcome.

Is there any ongoing effort to move this forward? Is there a consensus
about the 1:1 mapping between ports and sink/sources?

No, and no.

We decided Immediately before 3.0 that some Bluetooth ports should be
merged (commit 40329acc1a28145643e49207e9d65cd05bbda2c8) but this is
basically UI-oriented and not very convenient for internal use, as
already discussed.

In this case, I was tracking down a issue we have in
module-bluetooth-device, and the solution would be much simpler if we
had independent ports.

So; if port are merged with sinks/sources, I assume you would like this merged object to be once per stream (i e different for a2dp and hfp/hsp), which would again break the UI?

This looks like a problem with the approach of trying to merge ports and sinks/sources.
