It was only one example they gave, and they accept multiple different types of ID; a driver's license or national ID card being other likely ones, and DLs do say where you live.

None of those documents reliably state my city of residence. At best they document where I once lived, but not even that is guaranteed.

Not updating your DL after changing your address is a crime* in all US states. I'm not as familiar with law elsewhere, but would be surprised if that's not true most other places.

*There are exceptions for active duty military personal and other limited exceptions.

It's pretty standard in a lot of Europe, one is required to update ones license with each change of address (although many people don't).

Along with such weird (to us) things as applying for an exit visa from your current town when you want to move to a new town...
