I agree that postponement, while a nice gesture, was unnecessary. London Bridge has not fallen and business as usual continues. I think the Queen would expect the UK to 'carry on regardless' in the best tradition of British comedy. Thus, there is nothing preventing an RNS being issued on the 13th September.
That said, the vast majority of UK citizens are saddened by her passing. Perhaps it resonates as we all mourn people we've loved. She lived through WW2 and was respected. Certainly, the Queen was a giant among the pygmies who have ruled us during her time on the throne. I say that as a staunch Republican btw.
