Why did they even replace it? The display of manual labor? The existence of an Indian tribe?
Because a good flag doesn't have detailed images and writing on it?
Say what you will about what they chose to replace it with, but the old one had pretty objective problems.
Because putting your seal on a blue flag is the laziest "flag" design and way too many states use it. There's a reason why flags like Texas's are instantly recognizable, and half the rest of the states the average person wouldn't be able to get in 10 guesses.
The flag of Texas and somewhere else... was it Puerto Rico? Look exactly the same except that one is more square.
The existing flag has a farmer with a gun nearby and an Indian riding his horse into the sunset. This new design will obviously please Indians since they've always wanted to be represented by Somalia.
