Or not a disappointment at all? The new plan fits better with a world full of stressed people with increasingly limited patience and short attention spans. A 20th century coronation in 2023 would certainly reinforce the notion of monarchy as a tone-deaf, antiquated freak show.
As one who does not think very highly of King Charles, I do believe he is absolutely on the right track regarding the modernization and slimming down of the British monarchy. However, I hope he also learned from Queen Margrethes recent folly not to rush things or skip important steps such as effective communication with those who will be impacted.
