One benefit is ultimately there would be a few million less plastic cards produced. If it successful, perhaps others states / countries rollout something similar. That could be hundreds of millions fewer plastic cards produced.
Admittedly this is unlikely a significant factor in the state governments decision making. Yet it’s a benefit all the same.

Gov ID doesn't seem like the place to start, seems like maybe the one that should always have a physical form even if everything else has become digital.
