It doesn’t accomplish nothing. It chips away at the image of him as a strongman, which is one of the things his supporters care about the most.

They have this as a demo at DTW airport where you scan your boarding pass, and it displays on the massive main screen entering the terminal “Welcome (Your Name)” with your flight information, but only you can see. I don’t remember the maximum number of people who can use it independently, but It’s insanely cool technology nonetheless. I really hate the reality that it’ll probably only be used for personalized advertising though…
