The problem with connecting to a malicious node to send a tx is simply that that node knows they are the first to see that tx.
obviously if you don't use protection, they will learn your IP address.
However,
This is true for all Bitcoin nodes by default anyway.
So if the node count is high,
and I don't think running an XMR node is any more complicated than Bitcoin
how is it less decentralized?
