I'm perfectly fine with being able to prove your vote was cast (I'd actually prefer if you were required by law to vote. You can make a vote of "nobody", but you'd need to vote), but that is very different from being able to verify who you voted for.
But even still paper ballots where you check off a square and put it in a box can give the same assurances as that complicated Scantegrity system as long as you stick around and watch the ballot box yourself till it's counted. yes, it's a day of time, but it's something you or literally anyone else can do regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, social status, education, or anything else.

The whole point is that an individual ballot becomes untraceable before the counting actually starts.
