      Itsan outdated practice but its not stupid in a traditional democracy. Who the elected official is should not make a difference in wether or not people are interested to know what government communicates.

      Changing it would be like if in the old days your dedicated radio station changing frequencies because they got a new boss. Plenty (old people) would just be confused on why there is no news.

      It’s almost like the president doesn’t actually matter and the state will violently serve capital regardless.
