Because you want to use it to talk to your friends, who know who you are anyway? I don't get this need to wipe yourself completely from the face of the Earth.
IMO the issue with Signal's lack of anonymity isn't that your friends know who you are; it's that Signal itself can build a graph of everybody's contacts.
