How is it compromising if you rebroadcast repetedly any tx in the mempool? What exactly does it compromise? It gives out the information that you have a mempool that holds transactions longer than the median holding time of the network, that's it. That tx is possibly not yours.

IP address to all peers.

Yeah, unless you wait for 2 weeks (or whatever the default eviction mempool policy is) after which the transaction rebroadcasting links it to your IP. I repeat again. Bitcoin core treats those transaction as your own when your pubkey is the receipient. And will not stop trying to rebroadcast them.
Sorry, I have a policy that I don't engage in reply chains for more than 3 replies. Hope that replies so far were helpful.
