Mirai Densetsu is wrong by saying that "America/Sao_Paulo" timezone does not exist and
should be changed to "America/Brasilia".
This list is based on "Time Zone Database", maintained by Internet Assigned Numbers
Authority (IANA). The location part of the name, accordingly to the naming convention, uses the
"most populous city in a region to represent the entire time zone, although other cities may be
selected if they are more widely known or result in a less ambiguous name".
It does not strictly consider local political divisions, because they are subject to change more
than names of large cities.
This suggestion does not proceed.
