This move makes zero sense to me. Why, change it? It's not it's official name or international recognized name so wtf

I think I heard that Trump did it because he thinks it gets him around some Biden era rule that he can’t reverse that bans oil drilling in parts of the “Gulf of Mexico.” It’s really stupid. Exxon and Chevron have both “acknowledged” the name change.

Oh that makes sense. Like when muskrat tried to get out of Twitter suis because the name changed.
