While your statement is true, one of the great Allied intelligence accomplishments of WW2 was tracking the serial numbers on German equipment and estimating production output. Because the Germans didn't obfuscate serial numbers the statisticians working for the Allies were able to gauge German industrial output with incredible accuracy.
