In your perfectly dispassionate banking office this is true, but in reality, people will judge, even subconsciously (though the subconscious bit is giving too much credit).

To give a true, recent, example, I might not like having the loan officer know about my donations to the Green Party - they could be right wing, after all!

Also, some places are just small and people gossip.

For the last tax filing that needed a voucher for income, I blacked out pretty much everything except the amounts received / sent. Is this not allowed in such a case for you in the US?

Tax statements are sufficient for proving income. Banks also need verification of the origin of funds for the down payment and closing costs, which is where the other statements come in.

I don't know. I don't live in the US anymore.
