Am i wrong to view this as "the federal government of the US is leaning on the internet archive" and being very concerned about that?

No. They'll wait until the archive is dependent on federal funding and then kill it.

Having done some cursory research (so I could be missing something), it doesn't look like you get any funding for being a federal depository library, just easier access to government documents, as well as formal recognition (so that people know you provide a local access point).
