I don't doubt that.  What I doubt is that it's helpful to offer the same explanation again and again.

Hm, I wonder what you guys would do if your country was attacked by an
aggressor.

The whole discussion if and why to change the spelling to Kyiv is
obsolete if the change has already been made in the repo, and even
though usually a new version of the DB is only released if some TZ rule
was changed, it should not be too hard to simply release a new version
now, due to the specific situation, and don't wait until another country
decides to stick with or abolish DST.

I'm sure this would calm down this discussion immediately.
