In GC, they would have to talk about the changes, and they don't want conversations. I think the prophets are afraid to face a group head-on, in person. They're more comfortable whispering little rumors, and strategically "leaking" bits of info in their Deseret News. Perhaps, also, the Mormon leaders have an inkling that they appear ridiculous to the rest of the world. Who has a "revelation" about earrings, tattoos, cola, veils, and trivia like that. If the leaders were to announce the new LGBTQ policy in conference, they would have to admit to the previous policy which was a huge faux pas for the church. The cult likes to keep things under wraps, so only the brainwashed, blindly Mormons hear about it, on a need-to-know basis. It's also easier for the leaders to reverse, back pedal, deny, and gas-light, if policies are not very widely known, and are not very clear.
I think the Mormon leaders know exactly what they are doing. Like magicians, they use practiced smoke-and mirror techniques, sleight of hand, distraction, etc. in order to confuse people. Mormons appear to be nice, friendly people, and they loudly get everyone's attention, and even jostle people a bit, then, when people are off-balance, the Mormons pick their pockets.
