Phone number is enough to find who is behind it in most cases.

Yes, Signal is not an anonymous messenger and it is not meant to be. It's a SECURE messenger, that will not reveal metadata or message contents. It DOES reveal who you are, which is intentional and important to prevent spam. Without that feature, Signal would be significantly less useful for me.
Signal is more privacy than anonymous.
There is no difference.
