Diplomat is not a ship role used by pirates in One Piece. Diplomacy is rarely used out in the sea in One Piece. Not one person has an introbox of Diplomat of a crew so why would it be introduced in the Final Saga!?!? It's a strange role to implement in an adventure battle manga aimed at teenagers.
it is a real life ship role
sometimes it's nice to break the norm, that's what the strawhats are all about
the SHPs are also the first crew in One Piece that most likely actively bonded with multiple nations back to back and liberated them from opressions. else we wouldn't have this approaching new world order in the current story.
+the manga is not aimed at teenagers only, it is also aimed towards the growing long-term audience.

I do undstand your point. I just don’t think Luffy has any interest in that. He just wants to do whatever he wants to do. I’m vivi can join, but the role of diplomat seems to me like something vivi stans came up just so she can join. I personally don’t find her that interesting of a character. I much more prefer if Stussy or Lilith joined.
I am also not 100% on the diplomat thing, she can also just join with no role, or as a temporary ally like Carrot.
I just want her back with the shps for one or more arcs.
It's still nice to speculate. It even may be agenda, but it is not harming anyone or getting into the way of anyone.
