"...I understand that they want to have the ball change because Addidas makes a hell of a lot of money putting out a new World Cup ball for sale every 4 years."
That about sums it up. Follow the money. Think about how much money is generated from the sale of throwback jerseys in baseball and football. No need for throwbacks, but they are here to stay. If they are going to change it should be in the year after the world cup. Then teams have four years to prepare. Not going to happen.
