I'm not really sure why law enforcement is trying to clean it up
as they don't really need it. Transactional records are easily
subpoena'd and carriers/hosters/providers are duty bound to provide
the information. A WHOIS record is junk for the most part.

In the US maybe, but whois records are visible in other jurisdictions, where
law enforcement may not have easy access to these records.
