Comment:
Changing it from minor to major for my use case. We found out that when
using data in Belgium, the state that get's returned for places is not
actually the correct state (province in this case). This is because
Belgium maps it's state property to admin_level 6 instead of the usual
level 4.
This is a big deal for us as we want to show the correct state (province)
in our geocoding.
