The government intentionally diffuses responsibility for all the same reasons corporations do.
The government does not have much incentive to work efficiently because of use it or lose it budgeting. You ever notice how you only ever see stories of efficiency coming from cash strapped departments and poor cities? This is why
We don't want the government to have all the databases interlinked. There's too much potential for abuse and when you're talking about state or nation scale programs your "rare" edge cases result in tens of thousands or millions of people being shafted.
