Without tracking someone could cheat. Even cash has a serial number for tracking and cameras on every ATM. Best you can do is to make it incredibly hard to tie a identity to a chain of transactions.
A insignificant difference, show me a more privacy friendly method of sending money digitally and I'll listen. Monero and other cryptocurrencies excluded.
Also, the most common scenario for cash is you withdrawing the bill from an ATM, which means your face will be caught on camera and identified with timestamp. You make the payment in a store, that has camera surveillance, once again your face is on camera with a timestamp and location. The store then sends your bill back to the bank. How's that more privacy friendly in your world?
A trackable currency is the worst for privacy anyway.

I think all your point proves is digital currency is a wet dream for fascist regimes.
Physical money, is alot harder to track and why people who care about privacy stay away from digital chain ledgers.
You just acknowledged Monero, so you already know of a solution
