It’s unclear to me whether this is similar to a passport or just a login system for government websites. Seems like the latter, right? If yes, then I don’t understand the downside.

For context, here in NL we’ve had such a system for some time (“DigID”) and as a citizen I find it infinitely better than the mess we had before. I don’t think that it gives government agencies access to information about me that they didn’t already have.
