Why does Mississippi issue different plates for each county?

I can't think of a reason for the extra hassle and expense.

My speculation is based on who hands them out.

states I’m familiar with do not show county. Plates are handed out by a DMV/RMV, which is a state agency

for those states that show county, are the plates handed out by a county level agency?
- In GA, the state oversees vehicle registration but the counties actually do the tax collection/license plate issuance. For reference we have counties on our plates
