They replied to my very same suggestion a few months ago - "sending checks is not within our policies"

Seems like it would have been more honest to say "sending USD to Americans is not within our policies".

Mt. Gox were wrong to not be clear about this while still soliciting my identity document scans. I consider the harm caused by my loss of control of this data to be significant, and also a result of fraudulent characterization of their service capabilities. I'll probably not ever get around to attempting to seek reconciliation for damages, but I keep it open as a possibility.

So far Mt. Gox is the only outfit I've provided high quality identification documentation to so it will be clear who is at fault if the documentation comes onto the market and is abused, and in that case I will take a very active interest in seeing them suffer.
