There has to be consistency, right? If you can't have statues honoring slaveholders then you can't have capitals honoring them.
Meant to talk about this in my original post, but I forgot to. The biggest problem with Confederate memorialization is that it was done with the purpose of enforcing and lionizing White Supremacy. Washington is definitely problematic, but passively instead of actively so. The DOC and other groups created those statues to tell you that the south, slavery included, was right.
