I'm really curious how a dusting attack actually benefits the dusting party. How does it invade privacy more than simply monitoring the target UTXO?
Attackers dust addresses that have previously spent a utxo, not ones that currently control a utxo. So, now there is a new utxo at that address, and when the wallet goes to spend it will use the new dust utxo along with utxos at other addresses the wallet controls. Now this new spend tx reveals on chain that the previously used address is connected to other addresses.
Am I reading correctly that if your CPU was more modern you would expect a 7-10.5 hour IBD sync time from Libbitcoin still using 32Gig RAM and SSD?
That seems to be the claim by the author of Libbitcoin. You would expect much faster sync time from Bitcoin Core too. It is limited by CPU signature validation.

Wete they complaining about greater *risk* of orphan blocks rather than an increased *rate* of orphan blocks?
The risk is purely hypothetical. However both pools made *more* money by mining sub sat txs. They certainly didn't *lose* money.

I don't know if they have each other as peers. I do know that at least two pools have complained that ignoring the subsat tx filters caused them to lose money via an increased orphan rate. CKPool comp...
That's not what your linked posts are complaining about. Both pools have an orphan rate of zero. In fact all pools mining sub sat txs have an orphan rate of zero https://x.com/mononautical/status/1968138304265900433
