I'm not sure it does much to increase the privacy of miners from the perspective of the mining pools. AFAICT, the address privacy appears to remain the same.

However, it does prevent eavesdropping on the communication between pools and miners: https://braiins.com/stratum-v2#man

The miner can build the transaction block rather than the pool operator

I'd classify that more-so under censorship resistance for the txs.
