The Earth's magnetic field is subject to the Sun's, though. And the other planets (milankovitch cycles). It's pretty likely that a pole shift isn't just an independent thing that the Earth does in a vacuum. Polar shift is very likely affected by the magnetic fields the Earth is bathed in, like the Sun.

That may be so, but we still won't notice a thing unless we're using compasses to find our way through the woods.
