This is really "Internet 0.9" knowledge.

Gert,

You're ignoring the possibility that people change over time. What if a person was a regular joe soap on the day that they filled out this web form, but had become a terrorist within a short period of time? How would your single form proposal cope with this, pray tell? Filling in the terrorism / nuclear arms shipment / bioweapons form each time is designed precisely to deal with smart alecs who think that they can get around arms embargoes like this.
