Yes, using the long official names in everywhere would be overdoing,
but for the changes in FAQ, I think we have to use more precise name
of the country (or territory). Although I do not stick to a
particular name and maybe I have wrong idea about some names, what we
use should be consistent and I just thought using the official name
is reasonable... Do we need a list of consistent short form and the
official name, maybe? Most of newspapers and publishers have such a
writing rule.
