   It could very well have that as a kind of fail safe...  How else would everyone else be protected from the kind of host that Luccio described?  What are the protections against mental illness?  Some severe and violent forms do not show up until the early to mid-twenties...  So what if Ivy becomes psychotic or develops signs of schizophrenia?  Can the Archive act independently if that happens?

It could have also been Nemesis infection, or the work of a White Court Vamp (Who I suspect also helped get rid of Murphy's father).  Just as Maggie's curse sandbagged the White Court, so was the Archive.  There had to have been a period of time that she wasn't able to perform her duties, and even when she could probably not as effectively as an adult. Ivy's grandmother was also killed.

So Grandmother killed, mother commits suicide, Ivy new Archive as an infant.  Rather suspicious, almost as if someone is trying to eliminate the Archive.

 It does appear that way, or alternatively get a cooperative host...  In a way you could say this was one of Nic's goals when he kidnapped Ivy, get her to accept a coin and play on his team... It could have worked this way, Ivy left as sort of a zombie shell, and the Fallen manipulating the Archive..
