It's problematic, in my opinion, because it starts to put information that would otherwise be private into the public realm and open it up to scrutiny. Why should a restaurant know whether or not I'm vaccinated?

Pretty obvious. You are a business risk, that could take their staff out for days or weeks. They have a duty to provide a safe work environment. They also may get more patrons, if those people know everyone in the restaurant is verified vaccinated. I know I won't be going anywhere unmasked without confirmation.
Also, your other comparisons are silly, because they don't present a risk to others by merely being present.
