  No, why should they? Ground rule (interpretations I know about) have
nothing in common with this case (except stating that mapping borders
is an exception).

  Ground rule interpretation you're talking about has never existed.
Otherwise why is it not visible in the data?

  Go through the posts of last attempt and you will get the info.
  Succeeded is when everybody (or at least almost everybody)
recognises the anschluss.

> Do you propose to map Tibet as independent country,

  Well... Yes :-D China communist party does not like OSM anyway.
  Note, here situation is quite different from Crimea, unfortunately
almost all nations do recognise that Tibet is currently controlled by
China since the occupation in 1950.

  Sooo... you're proposing to map Crimea as belonging to Moscow and
add a name "Occupied Ukrainian Crimea"? ;-)
