At a certain point you just have to trust that most people aren't trying to scam or rob you. The waiter is too busy putting in other orders and bussing tables to write down all your card details (and I guess social engineer your billing zip code?) I imagine most people who make their living from credit card fraud would rather not spend their days working in a restaurant.

But... you don't have to just trust as you say... we already have technology that means you don't have to let them have your card at all. Plus isn't taking the card away from you a lot slower even if it wasn't also less safe? What's the advantages?!
