You said it: they play it infuriatingly safe.
They don't use the screen until Streets. They could rotate Bad with AIWIY, OOC, IWF, who knows.
They also don't use the screen for Little Things (except for Bono and Edge's kids at the end). They can choose to end the show with other closers like 40, etc.
They didn't have any visuals for MW, but they played it anyway, because it's easy, a crowd pleaser and they were missing the now cliche fan onstage.
So if they really want to change the setlist, they can, but prefer not to do it.
