This article is very relevant in the context of the EU Digital Identity Wallet, and digital credentials in general, such as ISO/IEC 18013-5 mobile driver licenses and other mdocs.
We may accidentially end up with non-repudiation of attribute presentation, thinking that this increases assurance for the parties involved in a transaction. The legal framework is not designed for this and insufficiently protects the credential subject for example.
Instead, the high assurance use cases should complement digital credentials (with plausible deniability of past presentations) with qualified e-signatures and e-seals. For these, the EU for example does provide a legal framework that protects both the relying party and the signer.
Isn't non-repudiation something we want for cases like this? If e.g. a car rental place checks your driving license before renting you a car, and then you get into a crash, no-one wants you to be able to claim that you never showed them your driving license and they never checked.
