I mean, i dont think anyone argues to keep the royalty because they actual serve a vital function in the operation of the government.

In fact the only political power the royalty really have are the ability to dissolve the parliment and have them re-elected. But that hasnt been exercised in quite some time.

They are a figure head, they are kept for symbolic reasons and as a matter of history, nothing else. That is by design.
