Isn't that basically what Apple Pay does?

Apple pay uses a card number per merchant, but that card number could still be used at any other merchant. Eventually that loophole could be closed, but payment systems move like molasses... Expect it to take 20+ years...
It simply means if the card number is used for fraud, it'll be easier to track down who leaked the card numbers.
