Right, but the problem happens when you do need to bind to a specific
port (e.g. 44818) and
iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --sport 55500 -j DROP
Since ephemeral ports are used by clients and selected randomly, you
force to switch another one.
Unpriv ports used by services not started by root are the irrelevant
ones. No all people has "bittorrent" in their systems and need it

As suggestion:
From the system that you use to chroot, use hwid software to get all
needed to boot.
Compile your own kernel without genkernel assuring that the options of
hwid are included in kernel (not as modules).
I never used dracut, grub allows specify the initramfs to use, use
