None of the above is necessarily true. Actually there are already examples where the above assertion has been given the lie by how things have already transpired with US passports already issued even when the applicant had a birth certificate showing birth to a US citizen parent -- that is even with a birth certificate from a state authority within the US or even for those issued a US government Consular Report of a US citizen born abroad.

While the government has consistently claimed that this form will initially be used for less than 100,000 persons, this approach will not be limited to that number of persons.

And what guarantee is there that the information provided on that form will never be used for purposes of conducting a fishing expedition or to drag in who knows what and whom and prosecute people who dare to fill out that form? Nothing really, when push comes to shove.
