The votes can be public but that doesn’t mean the data needs to include information that identifies the voter.


then what's the point? can you list a single use case that would make sense with this idea?


Yes. Voting. That’s how voting works. You go to the polling place, you confirm your identity with one person, then you go to another person to get the ballot. There is no linkage between your ballot and your identity, as they are done in separate and independent steps.
