A major benefit would be that the mere fact that the home instances of those accounts are government owned would be better verification than something like Twitter or Threads could ever offer.

Is that the real BAG mastodon account or a fake? Well, does it have admin.ch or ch.ch as its home domain (or something like mstdn.admin.ch, point is the base domain is government owned)? If not, it's a fake.
