So yes, in theory a review, if it were to follow scientific protocol, could be anonymous.

But peer review is exactly not a scientific rebuke/answer to an article. Because that would leave the reader with the recursive problem of having to assess the review.

It's more like a reference in normal work like. A trusted reviewer does the work of assessing the article/proposal/... for us.
