In my humble opinion there is no way that kendo could possibly remain unchanged given the political and commercial realities of olympic organizing committees. It happened to judo, it happened to Tae Kwan Do, it happened to fencing, etc., etc. While the olympics certainly are about the purity (?) and love of sport, there is also no question that it's about big business too.
