Ah, thanks.

I'm not opposed to changing this if you have a use case. It remains suboptimally set in a case where something is plugged again into that port, for Thunderbolt it doesn't matter as the PCIe speed picked is quite bogus anyway, but disconnect then plug something again is not limited to Thunderbolt. I've no immediate plans on changing it now but it may come relevant when attempting to make the bandwidth controller to trigger the quirk. To me there are two quirks, not just one so I might have to split them to make it better suited for triggering them from bwctrl. -- i.
