I am writing about both. The REASON they make replacement birth certificates LOOK original is to prevent adopted children from realizing they are adopted.
Many people who adopt children don't want the children to discover that they are adopted. Often couples will have an adopted child together with their own biological children, and they don't want the adopted child to think of themselves as an outsider.
The legal systems in all the states have long agreed that this is often in the best interest of an adopted child, so they made it possible for birth certificates to be created that look exactly like the original birth certificate so that the adopted child (And lets face it, Children have to have their birth certificates for all sorts of reasons, such as playing on a baseball team and such.) will not find anything on it to give away the fact that they are adopted.

If you are so quick to dismiss an idea without carefully considering it, I can't see how you would be much help anyway.
