Why not to use brand new blockchain for things like this? It's just a trash from bitcoin's point of view.

The point of these texts is that they are stored forever. Bitcoin blockchain is probably the most likely to survive a long time and is the most secure blockchain (due to high amount of hashpower over the years). If you want any blockchain for these things then Bitcoin blockchain is the way to go.
