After reading justifications like that, I find it hard not to feel cynical about people who suggest and promote such changes. Am I missing something important, or is this really just a fig leaf covering busywork, promotions, and internal politics? Every time I’ve had to implement a "fresh redesign" as a developer, it always seemed to be about scratching an itch for a higher-up or a designer.

That's a great point I overlooked, thank you for bringing it up!

Isn't that something screensavers was created to solve?

No, you're not missing anything. This is what is colloquially referred to as bullshit.
