Particularly on websites like Reddit, people generally want to remain anonymous.
I don’t want my boss or parents to know that this Reddit account belongs to me.
Not censoring your license plate basically means anyone who knows you personally can now tie you to your Reddit account.

Yes, on it’s own it’s likely not going to allow anyone to identify you.
But neither would your first name.
Or your last name.
Or the name of your street.
The thing is, in combination, this info can be used to uniquely identify you, so just because any piece of information by itself can’t be used to identify you, doesn’t mean it’s completely without risk to post that info
