Tbf, the number on the ID card is not uniquely identifying, atleast it isn't supposed to be.

At best it is simply verification of what the card says in human readable terms (both the short number on the front and the long text on the back).

Only the card in it's entirety is valid authentication of who you are.

The postal service also demands the card, not only banks and the state, though only if you have packages marked 18+ or PostIdent.
