Rightly, most Commonwealth countries who were tied to the Privy Council when they were colonies or dominions of Britain see no good reason their final appellate court should continue to be distant British individuals, appointed by the British prime minister, whose legal knowledge and expertise, while good, are no better than judges of their own countries or regions.
