That makes a lot of sense. There are several profiles which have this in
exactly the same form - as three linked words - and unless there has
been coordination, it seems unlikely that this will have happened by
accident.

Perhaps the next step is for someone to politely email these people and
point out that the field is now freeform text, that Kosovo is not in
Albania, and perhaps they might consider updating their profile?

If someone refuses on Albanian nationalist grounds, then come back. But
it may be that everyone agrees.
