Obama’s lawyers going to Hawaii for the BC was all theater. The “BC” is for public consumption, not legal consumption. Why is that?

I don’t speak for the President, but I think I can hazard a pretty good guess.
The COLB is sufficient under the law to establish a person’s birth data. You are right — there was no legal necessity for a long-form, despite what others might say.
But there was a segment of the public clamoring that they would not be satisfied until they saw the LFBC. Rightly or wrongly, the President decided to try to satisfy them.
Right, this merry go around is all a theater of the absurd. All Obama had to do is submit his BC to any number of courts where suits have been filed against him.
People submit their genuine birth certificates as ID all the time to get driver licenses, or to the military during enlistment or any number of other places, but not Obama. It's idiotic and stupidity played at a national level that should be beyond belief.
Only one good reason why Obama has not is that he is lying his donkey, Marxist butt off.
