I would say almost all organizations ignore their missions and operate orthogonal to their stated policies, after 100 years or so

“Calling it out” is meaningless

There are countless of organizations who follow their stated missions even after 100, 200, 400 or even 800 years. I'm not sure you should judge it based on some young US organizations, or whatever you're going by.

Not calling it out is cowardice and complacency. "Calling it out" might have a tiny effect, but it surely beats nothing.
