You're free to take the bus, or hire a chauffeur. A private pilots license doesn't have any pictures either.

For better or worse, we didn’t have to make such hard choices for the first 80 years of aviation. And Greyhound etc require photo ID these days as well
A US pilot certificate itself does not include a photo, but you must have a photo ID to use it. https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-14/part-61/section-61.3#p...
That’s not a freedom. That’s a restriction that reduces the amount of choices you have for potentially worse ones.
