Driver's license in US vs passport in France - not same.
Also are you completely not self aware?
"went over to my county records office" and "hope that your church/city-hall, can provide you a copy" - are literally the same thing. You just happen to live nearby the place where your birth certificate was recorded.
Let alone - low density areas, that are much more republican, also have easier access to government services.
OP said “to get an ID in France” not “get a passport.”
OP was wrong about US birth certificates. They’re not recorded by “churches” they’re recorded by each state. My county office issues certified copies of Maryland birth certificates. (Yes you need to be born in the state, but most Americans live in the state they were born in, just like most Europeans live in the EU member country they were born in.)
