Not "should not" but again "avoid as much as possible" 

Great care should be given when consolidating UTXOs that have been coinjoined. Since the whole reason you are doing that is to untie them in the first place. A lightning node is no exception to that rule. 

If you want multiple channels, still just use one UTXO that they all stem from. Cut in half and open two channels (or any fractional amount).

Lightning privacy tips for beginners?

Yeah, unfortunate. Always feels like several things are always on the cusp of being a reality soon but it's still not there yet. Pretty difficult work on top of every lightning team having their own priorities.
