There are ways of maintaining a chain of trust without losing total anonymity. For example DNS, email and Marshall Island companies. Karma systems and IP reputation can come into play too.

(I know the examples aren't truly anonymous, but they're all broadly comparable to using a Twitter without your real name).

The internet already isn't truly anonymous with how people actually use it. People are logged into a bunch of accounts that are traceable to them and also rarely mask their IP. With how much stuff I've paid for over the internet there's probably a double digit number of companies with my entire name and current address.

I just mean they may force you to share ID documents to make an account. I have trouble believing I would be anonymous at that point forward?

Five minutes later someone'll have an AI offering to make fake IDs.

Those will not be in the verification database.

What verification database? If I show you an Afghan passport, does the Taliban have an API to check it?
