Doesn’t opting out from anonymization mean opting in for PII?

Hah!

I bet in the mind of a bank exec, it may very well. An amusing point.

There are laws in some countries preventing this, but your point is entirely valid and even makes me wonder about opting out.

Heeeey, wait a minute, is this some banking MILDEC type scenario? Who are you? (j/k)
