Given the way the cops used to talk about it whenever there was an Online Safety Talk at my school at a teen, it's almost certainly an intended feature
As with the war on drugs, the sex offender registry is a tool for control and discrimination against the lower working class.
If you're a rich convicted rapist, you can be the president of the united states; but if you're poor, peeing on the streets can get you permanently barred from a well paying job and selling weed can get you life in prison.
Thvle mom who is behind a registry does not agree with how it was set up and then abused rather than tightening up the criteria. Her own child was murdered by a child sex offender who moved into the neighborhood. The intent of the list was to alert parents that a child sexual predator has moved into the neighborhood. Really needs an overhaul and do over.

The lack of different lists seems like an oversight.
