Perhaps, but I think it's mostly out of respect. There are orgs that still openly pledge (and probate), non-NPHCs of course.

We really need to cut the crap and be real. The reasons why orgs imitate NPHC traditions has nothing to do with showing respect or paying homage and contrary to what people try to convince themselves of, imitation is NOT the sincerest form of flattery. It's okay to "borrow" a little but make it your own and create your own traditions. Let's call it what it is.

I was referring to why probate videos tend not to show up on youtube.
