and the amazing thing to me is that the same argument occurs over and over, even if no one is limiting any specific gun or even if there is no national database or even if the lawful person is not threatened.

The propaganda is so effective, that any attempt to limit any person from having whatever gun they want is opposed without reason.

One reason to require insurance is to obtain real information about who is likely to misuse a gun. Insurance companies keep very good statistics. A lot of building codes and auto safety improvements were based in insurance company numbers.
