Oh it's really easy to fingerprint a device on Android so I'm 99% sure they are fingerprinting you in one way or another. But this seems to be an overly complicated way of doing it. It does really just seem like an unintentional design flaw.
If they fix it and randomise then I'd say you're right. But from the article they didn't say they would.
