If signing data would be enough, signed QR data would do as well.

The core problem is that the QR applications this issue refers to must know which _page_ the information is emitted from in order to "simulate" in-bound communication. Using the NFC based QR replacement: If a page is phished, the phisher's security context will be supplied with the "data" which in the case of authentication will (in a properly designed service NB), generate an authentication that only works in the phisher's domain or be stopped already at the phone client level.
