user-agents are becoming increasingly frozen[0], and IP addresses are getting even more temporary with IPv6 (they already are for mobile networks). It's indeed possible to tie a browser to a user account server-side without cookies, but it's by no means reliable and providing a guarantee based on circumstances you can't control is a terrible idea.

IPv6 is at best as bad for privacy as static IPv4 since you're assigned a fixed range, so the adversary can both identify you by the static part of your address, and possibly resolve devices behind the router which would be hidden by NAT in IPv4.
