If you have a SSN, you have a number.

Well I totally get this entire system is mismanaged horribly designed from the start not even designed for this from the start, exetera....

Having some kind of standardized way of stating someone else's trustworthiness when it comes to money lending it's something that's just inherit to capitalism as long as you have capitalism simple as that, even if they don't call it a credit score.
