If the people decide to invest the future democratically-elected head of state with powers unforeseen, then so be it. I believe that is how democracy works. I certainly don't like this paternalistic view that we need a British head of state to save us from ourselves. As for changing over all the 'royal' stuff in the event of a democracy, well, it would only have to be done once. And then next we start work on updating our hand-me-down flag.
