The thing with shimmer though is that after the person discovers how the connection is made they also have the task of decrypting the "handshake" or whatever...I think. And then by the time that is done the ports have switched. but I think that if the attacker can discover the shared secret and has the same time as the server and host, then he or she can figure out where the next port is open? I'm not sure though, amirite?
