Yes, that comment was indeed very interesting because it will mean that
any expats won't to pay taxes anymore... ;-)
(Given that the TAN will be replaced by the NIN)
Well, using the NIN is a privacy concern and the topic has been mulled

feisty discussions between politicians and data protection activists in
Germany about this approach, and it's not acceptable after all.
Also, that would provide a single point of failure, too.
