Despite my predictions, multiple users are facing issues connecting to Mullvad relays using port 53. I chose port 53 due to it being the only manually selectable port, however after analysis, Mullvad merely assigns a port at random for each config using the following.
Considering all Mullvad relays support all of these ports, I have chosen port 1194 as it is the default OpenVPN port. Anyone that is unable to connect on the default OpenVPN port couldn't reasonably expect to use software that relies on OpenVPN.
