It should be found because OSM is a geographical database and the reception, or the multiple receptions
as you asked before, is/are contained in the campus of the facility.

OSM is a geographical database and not a yellow-pages listing of hierarchically structured names.
The name="Math Building" of the XYZ university should be found because it is mapped on the campus,
and not because it is named "XYZ university - Math Building" or consequently even worse
"ABC country - DEF town - XYZ university - Math Building"
Your ASML example is not good imho since acronyms are discouraged.
