Republic or constitutional monarchy - we get a head of state either way. At least ours is based on a set of norms that are fundamentally sound and blessedly apolitical.

You kind of chose to ignore my point about the cost and repeated your own point.
I am not a government scholar. But why do we need either?
I proposed our current set-up but replace the GG with a committee/supreme court. Hell, give the actual GG duties that impact governance to the senate - ensure one PM doesn't appoint the single person who makes critical rulings. I can't believe I am advocating this next part- but keep the senate appointed unelected in this case. Helps removes the crap that occurs down south.
Why do we need a president or crown?
