It just serves no purpose to racially recast a historical figure. Especially a monarch which race also was a huge factor regarding their attitudes and subjugation of others. And what purpose does it serve as “art” if all it’s only substance is, “but what if this person was actually black?”
I think I pretty much agree with you, I just don't want to throw the artistic possiblity of racial recasting out entirely
