It was something you could do yourself, and not have to track down some sketchy criminal to buy some fake identity that may or may not work.
It was a major crime that you could pull off all by yourself, without getting involved with anyone else. It wasn’t a pain in the ass, any more than anything was a pain in the ass in the olden days. Want to buy something? Get your ass in the car and go to the store. Want a gift for someone in another state? You had to buy it, box it, and take it to the post office to mail it. No buying it from Amazon and having it delivered, without ever leaving your chair.
Spending a couple of hours in a cemetery, them mailing a couple of letters, would have been considered a pretty easy major crime in those days.
