In essence the suggestion was not to use the green card as it makes on stand out. IMO the driver’s license is a preferred ID when applicable as it makes you blend into the crowd. Show a green card and it’s apparent that you are a foreigner from whatever county is listed on it (as far as they are concerned). Show a driver’s license and it’s evident you drive a car. Which category is more likely to draw attention these days (and not the good kind either)?

At least GC is a good ID for small childrens. So far as I know,
small childrens can not have photo ID in the USA.
STate photo ID (non-driver license) has the same
age limitaion as driver license. So parents of US-born
children always have to take their kids' birth certificate
to get moving. So GC give alien kids some advanatges.
By the way, may be yoru accent etc already
tell that you are foreigners and people may even
think you are illegals. So using GC as ID
show you are legal.
In most cases, ID is for the purpose of business
(open a bank account, borrowng a tape,
gamble in Atlantic city etc). You won't get
discminating treatment for being an alient
because they want your money
