Do you reject the possibility that they combine the reliable information with the unreliable information to strengthen the latter? I mean, if you have logs stating that a specific Apple ID connected from a specific IP address at a specific time, and they know the identity tied to that Apple ID, it seems reasonable that it would strengthen the claim of "the user at this IP address is most likely this person" quite a bit, especially if the same IP shows up regularly with that Apple ID? I'm not saying they do this currently, but I'm just drawing attention to the fine line between privacy and security. Vigilance isn't necessarily a bad thing, as long as it's grounded in the full reality. It's always possible that one day, Apple's focus in this area may change. When it does, it helps if part of that discussion is already being had.
