Well everything they did was for a reason even if it was a shallow shitty reason. They wanted ace really badly because he carried the same genes as well as a high chance of having the will of D not to mention if he wanted to take after his father under his fathers name he could get ALOT of strong allies from the get go. As for Tom well Roger being the number one wanted criminal came to him for what the government would consider a weapon and a means to rebel against them and the people of the world so yes they blamed Tom to them it is like giving a bank robber a gun mid hold up just so he has a higher chance of succeeding and hurting more people. To the government Tom gave the worlds greatest criminals a means to continue rather than turning them in which is in real life a criminal offense.
