Funny story: back in the day (late 2018) the DWF used an email confirmation and stored it publicly in GitHub (the email stated this would happen). Someone did a data removal request, I pushed for "business requirements mean I have to store this" but MITRE pushed back and got GitHub involved so the choice was to remove it, or start dealing with lawyers and possible removal from GitHub. So yeah, there are some really good reasons we're avoiding PII where possible and letting people control it themselves, etc.
