I am not sure the GB main island is actually called Great Britain. GB is
a "country," not an island. Is the Isle of Wight not included?
As to creating holes for lakes, that is weird. If I am on a boat on
Windermere, am I suddenly no longer on the big island and no longer
within GB?
It is undoubtedly an island, but whether it is an island with an
independent name/identity, and whether that name/identity is "Great
Britain", I don't think the arguments are convincing.
I wonder if there is a place=island for Australia? Does that include
Tasmania?
