> why would you do a cash-out refinancing at a time of high interest rates?

If future interest rates are much worse much more quickly, it can be profitable.

IE: get a bunch of cash today locked at 10%, then lend out the money next year at 20%.

I dunno if that's the plan but there's so many possibilities in finance that it's hard to get what someone else is thinking even if their moves are public.
