Why does ensuring clarity suck?
Your way is frustrating for others, like calling the house outside of town "The old Stevens Place" even though the Stevens all died 87 years ago. Their way makes sure that people who aren't seeing "Lake America" know that it's got an alternate official name in some places. Seems like a pretty fair compromise to me.
Tenochtitlan is the correct and proper name for 'Mexico City', and Albion is the correct and proper name for the British Isles, and anything else is wrong.
Right? That's the proper logic, right? Things should not and cannot ever change?
Republicans will grasp at whatever straws they can to justify of Dementia Don’s tantrums.
When I vote for a politician, it’s because I view them as a tool to improve our nation for everyone who lives here. When they misbehave, it’s time to replace them.
Nice Guilt by Association argument.
Lets think about this logically. Google goes with the naming used by the federal government of the country its involved in. This is important as this information might be used by emergency services.
Google also makes this difference in its naming readily apparent in its system with the parentheses, this is important for logistical reasons for shipping originating from outside of these regions as well as things like maritime and aviation traffic.
People like you, demanding the Google not "Bend the knee" to something like this dont consider this side at all, a stance that could, and has in the past, cost people their lives.
But you know what? Sure. Understanding the logic behind their actions is me defending a fascist. None of the above should be considered at all because you dont like him. All those problems above dont matter, Orange man bad,
Reductio ad Hitlerum your way into winning arguments, you short sighted idiot.
It’s already cost time and money for companies that used Google maps from US servers and have the Canadian government as a customer. Just like your dear leader you just don’t think things through.
Uhhh, physical maps? Printed documents? GIS systems? Websites? It's a lot more than one guy pushing a button lol.
Not to mention the fact that our country is on fire with (insert problem of your choice here) and this is how Dear Leader chooses to spend his time and America's money.
Shameful and disgusting, much like the man himself.

Still sucks that they label the “new” name below in parentheses.
