That completely defeats the purpose of aliasing though...

    That depends on why you do it I'd say. Is it obvious for a human (or an LLM I guess) whether two aliases belong to the same person? Sure. But you can still separate which service an email you received belongs to, ie who leaked your data, or got breached, who sends you spam, etc.

    not if you can use a catch-all for you domain. Then you can still do per-service aliases and filter them all accordingly.

    Yes but they all return to the same domain. Your domain. That you alone operate.

    If you have the privacy masking configured on your domain registrar then how would senders know who you are as the domain owner? What do you do for sites that reject emails from passmail.com (and other known email forwarding service domains)?

    They have their ways. And even if they didn't, they don't really need to, it's enough to profile you across sites.

    What do you do for sites that reject emails

    The only site I've run into that does that is GitHub. And what I do about it is to tell anybody who asks me to submit a bug report to GitHub to get fucked. I view that as malicious behavior.
