Why do you assume your asking is a problem?
You are very far from the first.
I am a bit burned out on it largely due to having to give the same answer over and over and over to another poster who stubbornly refused to get it.
He seemed to think that if he kept insisting that you couldn’t get a passport without a birth certificate that would make the pesky facts on the State Department’s own web site go away.
I may not always agree with you, but at least you are not willfully stupid!
We could be getting burnt out on it from spending so much time on it ;-)
