Where does this matter? I don't think it does for CTP -- the source node puts in the NODE_ID (correct), and the AM address is only used in link estimation. I guess there's the problem that if another node changes its address then your link estimation entries for its old address will no longer be valid and you need to regenerate the state. But I think this is an acceptable cost to pay -- if you try using NODE_ID you get into issues where you can't distinguish multiple radios on a single node.
