This has been a failed experiment.

The experiment seemed to have succeeded for many years, but perhaps the approach has outlived its usefulness and benefits.

Putting aside the "skeleton" approach, locating the capital in another city would run into many of the same problems that result from a desire for federal control of a federal enclave. If the capital were located in (say) St. Louis, why would anything be really different?
