Why does conceding matter?
#2
It reaffirms the strength and integrity of the electoral process; allows both sides to move on to the business of governance; calms intemperate adherents; and when done properly is the hallmark of a person of moral character.

A good and honorable concession speech can also set the stage for a follow-up run for public office.

...And in the specific case of Trump's followers, one might hope that it prevents them from taking the country down in flames when he loses.
