I think just like most of these things (and personified by Gen-Z seemingly more than most) many people believe history only started the moment they were born. Anything before that was wrong or a myth and can only be interpreted by their lens.
These mascots will die with the fans that remember them and grew up with them. Yes, I will never use any of the new names and I am sure the new generation will look at me quizzically each time in confusion.
