The script in question is designated "Han" in the Unicode Standard,
and has always been so, in part because it is also used for Japanese,
Korean, and Vietnamese, and not just Chinese. So I think it would
be equally or more confusing to list the *script* for Chinese
as Chinese, implying that it is somehow different from the Han
script otherwise so designated in many places on the Unicode website
and in the Unicode Standard.
