It isn’t correct that no other rabbi has done it. When Hermann Adler was the Chief Rabbi he went to a coronation.
Yoreh Deah 178 has the halakhot of a karov lemalkhut.
the taz there says מותר בכל. ואע”ג דכל הנזכר בסי’ זה הוא בכלל ובחוקותיהם לא תלכו ואין כח לחכמים לעקור דבר מן התורה מ”מ הכא שאני כיון שלא פירשה התורה שום דבר ומסרה לחכמים והם ראו להתיר לקרובים למלכות. ב”י
There are definitely things that chazal allowed for people who have the position of a קרוב למלכות.In my school a modern orthodox religious zionist school in cleveland we have school for 2-3 days of chol hamoed sukkot and no school on chol hamoed pesach. While we have school the middle school and high school do not have class and instead go on a chol hamoed trip as a high school on one day, and on the other day we learn about inyanei dyoma and eat a school sponsored lunch at a teachers sukkah.
