I'm not worried about some nebulous theft; the not sharing of a card number with a merchant is what I'm referring to.

    It's that or share your entire purchase history with the world's biggest ad company. It essentially comes down to a tradeoff of a small outlier risk that isn't likely to have any significant effect in most peoples' lifetimes against an absolute certainty that your privacy will be violated and exploited. I am not seeing how that's preferable, but it's your choice, and you have to do what you're most comfortable with.
