Only if I accept your premise of moral grandstanding. Maybe they just misjudged statue fetish among the general public. Elected officials can still hold public consultations but it would be terribly impractical for every issue. Also the original statement literally said it’s an open issue. Whatever, I mostly just think you’re still making way too big an issue out of it.
