Reply to comment by Godsarefakezz in King Charles III bank note designs revealed by Bank of England by elizabeth-cooper

How is it tacky? The money has always had the reigning monarch on it.

Tacky would be not to do it, to wallow in nostalgia about the previous monarch, in deliberate ignorance of the current status.

Worshiping old things instead of the current status quo just seems kinda bizarre to me.

Worshiping old things instead of worshiping new things. What’s the difference?

Going out of your way to keep Elizabeth II on, even after she should not normally be, is more worshipful than just putting the current King on as is normal.
