This is not intended as a Platonic ideal of what authentication should be. Rather, it's intended as a better alternative to being forced to log in with Google/FB/Twitter, since those companies for sure aggregate and monetize your private information, whereas Apple probably does not.
It seems like a great way for Apple to hoover up a heap information they probably don't need.
I also wonder how they are going to combat bounces and send back a usable error message. While they can perhaps do useful things with say a mailbox full bounce they are probably going to have to hide or at least obfuscate some other kinds of bounces.
