I already went over a number of ways to avoid that issue the other day, such as simple downloading literally all the assets.

It's just a single bit and it can be defeated by a number of ways.
Limiting to total number of bits of entropy one can obtain (that aren't noise/randomized/OR'd) should be done, of course.
Tor doesn't actually do anything for identification on that level beyond the IP and some network characteristics. Tor Browser does considerably more on top.

Indeed, disabling that also removes a lot of identification opportunities.
