Love the fact that I can't use the automated global entry when I visit the states as there exists someone else in the world with my name and a different D.O.B..

I do still try it each time though as it's still quicker to fail and then get a wistful comment from the guy checking my passport about the issue with the system.

Err, Global Entry is a members-only program. Unless you're actually a member (or a member of a similar program in a country with a reciprocal agreement), of course you can't use those kiosks.

GE doesn't match by name and birthdate, it uses your known-traveler number.
