Do you really need to know the last four if you all you really want to know if the identified person should be granted access?
I’m not sure how else to give someone the information that person X has had vaccine Y, other than actually transmitting that exact information?
Yes, it’s (slightly) sensitive information. But if one decides that we want to have a system based on this exact information, and it had to be “offline capable”, what are the options?

If the requirements are that verifiers must themselves be able to decide which vaccines are acceptable, number of doses or time since last dose, and which issuers are allowed, then yes.
Without any kind of ID the QR code is useless.
