That works to combat tax fraud though

If there only was a way to do something like this electronically...

There's no obligation to provide a paper "Bon," stores can just offer digital receipts by default.

The bakeries I go to usually do this (even though bakeries where crying the loudest back then). Other stores don't for some reason.

There is, the receipts don't have to be paper-based, they can be an email - REWE does that for example, if you have a loyalty card.

What they didn't manage to do is find a way to do it electronically without some sort of profile/registration.

I’m very sure that they would know a way, but there’s absolutely no incentive to do so.

The person talking about a QR code based system in another comment in this thread would suggest otherwise.
