As is often the case, I'm not with you on this.  When everything else is in a
constant state of flux, having something steady and reliable can something
you can rely on.  In her case sure everything changed from 1952, but she
remains a steady constant able in most cases to keep the monarchy relatively
popular and relevant to the peoples.  Which in this day and age is about all
it can do.  It's not like the crown has had any real power since...~1700s
somewhere. If they aren't the UK or Britain, they are pretty much its soul,
perhaps not so much for the rest of the commonwealth.
