I don't get "trans-national administration is not a super-national organization" argument, EU clearly has administration, de facto (also de iure?) laws, elections and so on. Though it is area where I am not confident at all, so I am not really proposing to do that - just that I would not be surprised or opposed. I fixed https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/779838275 as clearly bogus.
