I just did a fresh review of that spec and explainer. Thanks for addressing 
many of the previous issues. This addresses many of the potential objections.

Here’s the new issues I filed:

https://github.com/WICG/ua-client-hints/issues/151 
<https://github.com/WICG/ua-client-hints/issues/151>

Most of these are minor/editorial, but I think 151 is potentially a 
deal-breaker. I may be misreading the spec, but as written getHighEntropyValues 
seems to give access to all of the high entropy client hints to third-party 
scripts in the first party context, and scripts running in third-party iframes, 
regardless of which ones the site has opted into via the relevant HTTP header. 
That would be a huge problem, as it would grant a lot of active fingerprinting 
surface unnecessarily (perhaps even expanding beyond what is currently possible 
with the UA string).

Regards,
Maciej
