I’m wondering: is there a good list of data privacy failure consequences?

There are good lists of breaches but few describing what happened to the people afterwards. Credit card theft resulting in a loss being the most obvious one.

Such concrete (real) examples would help me to argue with people who say: all this non-sense about data privacy. What would anyone want to do with your data anyways?

Not a useful argument; anyone making the "nothing to hide" argument is implicitly arguing the trustworthiness (or the low likelihood of a mistake impacting them) of the state/justice system. You and other members of the general public are not part of that.

This is also why the snippy "so you don't have (locks on your doors/blinds on your windows/etc.)?" comeback does not work.

There is a massive assumption that only justice systen will have access to this data. We know this data is sold to anyone, even criminals.
