Exactly. It doesn't matter where you live and what government you live
under, they issue you some form(s) of identification. A digital
certificate is simply a digital form of identification. Why should the
government keep using ink and paper documents for identification when
digital ones are much better?
I for one will be glad when I can just get a certificate in my email
instead of waiting in line for 5 hours at the department of motor
vehicles to renew my driver's license.

Any particular government? A few years ago I'd probably have agreed.
With the most blatently corrupt government in living memory, that has
less appeal.
At first I thought this statment was inappropriate on an international list
where we don't know where anybody lives. But then I realised it applies equally
well to every government on the planet...
Except, maybe, Iceland?
