this is one of those things i have far less sympathy for

the explicit purpose was to dehumanize, humiliate, and torture. keeping it sends a not very good message to the oppressed

Well, it's a historical punishment implement that kinda underscore how much more humane criminal justice has become over the years. It's basically a very "never-again" kind of monument. Getting rid of it kinda white-washes history. Other than that, it's kind of an eye-sore and it doesn't even appear to have a plaque explaining its significance.
