Wouldn't it be way easier to just track the people handing out the flyers?

That depends on whether:

1. You're looking for a very specific person.

2. You want to unconstitutionally punish somebody for free speech, and you don't care who, you just want to cheaply find a convenient victim.

In that respect, tracking-dots are an invitation to #2, since they don't really need much in the way of human labor-hours or focus.
