Identity is proven when you register to vote. Identity is proven when you verify your SSN when requesting the ballot.
Identity is proven when the signature on the ballot has to match the signature on your state issued ID.
They wanted a little more verification. I feel I could cast a ballot in someone else's name pretty easily with the restrictions you listed, depending on how voter registration is done.
And yet, there is no proof that this is a widespread issue, and ironically, when it has been caught, it has been GOP voters who do it.

Because Republicans (and Democrats) protect those in their own tribe.

I think the signature one is the hardest to 'fake' tbh. My dad has dementia. He can no longer sign his name like he did on his license, so he's been unable to vote by absentee ballot over the last election cycle. His dementia isn't so bad right now to where he doesn't know what's going on. He knew the candidates. He knew our President at the time when he voted. He knows who our President is now.
He provided a sample of his current signature for it to be compared to his license signature for ballot verification and the lady at the board of elections office confirmed that his vote wouldn't be certified due to the discrepancies. So, in-person voting it is for him until he's not able to understand the candidates or the purpose of the election.
