IMHO just the fact that your proposal leaks the fact that a verification was attempted to the government disqualifies it.
Additional problems that jump out to me on a very cursory reading are that it allows the requesting website to link the browser loading it to the verifying device, e.g. linking the device fingerprints of a laptop and a phone.
