We changed it recently already, I don't see why we can't again
Yea, it's not sacred, it's just a song.
Well, news fatigue is possibly a legitimate not to incrementally change the anthem.
Kinda reminds me of Linus Sebastian's (LTT/LMG/WanShow) take on a video game (Beat Saber) where he said he basically doesn't play this game anymore because every time he boots it up, it requires a small update that breaks compatibility for 3rd party mods.
If you make a small change every year, or 5 or whatever, people are all gonna be on different versions of the anthem, and it's gonna be sort of difficult to get everyone on the same page.
Much better to do an outright overhaul.
