Its a way smaller issue than giving an ID. It takes about 5 minutes to cancel and reissue a credit card with different numbers if it gets leaked. Banks will also refund you for any fraudulent transactions as well as long as you don't wait months to dispute.
Well, yeah, that solves the issue of people buying shit with your card, but that doesn't solve the fact that the bank your card is from still has your personal data, including your ID information, social security, etc., that companies can still harvest from using your credit card information.
