No, I think this is a good thing.
Google's "quick results" which are supposed to help searchers before we navigate away, have been plagued with misinformation and threat actors attempting to game the results. A lot of it was ganked from Wikipedia directly, fraught with peril in the usual ways.
If Google limits these answers to Gov-based bodies, then more searchers will navigate away to the pages they searched for. Even if these are low-quality results, at least the provenance of answers will be apparent.
