But is that really what you want to happen IN GOVERNMENT? For bureaucracy to adapt even mildly flawed technology?! Bureaucracy + blind trust in hierarchy/computers = Kafka-esque hellscape.

"I'm sorry sir, but the computer clearly says that you've been charged with sexual harassment - we cannot renew your driver's license and we're putting you on the sexual offenders list, please report to your local PD weekly." (completely made up and exaggerated, but I'm sure one can think of similar scenarios) [1] Good luck convincing the clerk that that's not real. You can probably get it corrected after months of your time and $$.
