It’s kind of surprising there wasn’t one already?

Yes when comparing to many other countries, but looking at how the US is a federation and that it’s each state that issues birth certificates etc it’s not that surprising.

That's handy, much simpler to remove a person from the citizen roll if it's in only one place controlled by the federal government. Very useful.
