actual kings wear that garb as tradition dating back hundreds of years.

That's an appeal to tradition fallacy. Just because they've been doing crazy and wasteful stuff for a long time doesn't make it objectively less crazy and wasteful.

A ceremony that brings in significant funds through tourism.
