While I don't object to a BOF, I don't know where it goes.
What I see is that much of this problem needs to be resolved through increased use of 802.1X: making WPA-Enterprise easier to use and setup, this changing core identity from MAC Address to IDevID.

My understanding is that Apple intends to randomize MAC every 12 hours, even on the same "LAN" (ESSID), and that they will just repeat the WPA authentication afterwards to get back on the network.
I of course don’t know Apples intentions, but what you are describing is the behaviour of early iOS 14 beta versions. However this behaviour has changed in later beta versions and the released iOS 14.0 version to have a random Mac per ESSID and not change that over the lifetime of the device (at least no so far on my devices at home), which I think is more in line what the rest of the industry does.

So long
