So I'll guess that Tram inspectors as well can ask you some ID?

I have a question, when you buy the monthly pass for the public transportation with your name and address on it, why they ask you to show them ID? If I buy a single ticket, they will not ask to prove who I am, so why with the monthly ticket? I have my ticket, I paid for it, it should be enough!
They ask you to show ID in case you are illegally using somebody elses monthly ticket.
I suppose they do not ask for ID for a single ticket because either it is not illegal to use somebody elses ticket or it is illegal but since there is no proof who bought the ticket then checking ID is pointless.

Please do not ask me to explain the logic behind the rules for daily & monthly tickets
