I wish to express my disagreement.

and I will give more examples, from openstreetmap.org, "the" map.

Gulf of Venice; Gulf of Trieste; unlabelled Mare Adriatico; North Sea; unlabelled Ostsee; unlabelled Canale di Otranto; Balearic Sea (you're kidding me!); unlabelled Mediterranean; unlabelled Red Sea; unlabelled seas and straits West of Japan; unlabelled Bering Strait;

so while I do feel uncomfortable seeing English labels between Venezia, Trst/Trieste and Istria, I am even more uncomfortable with the absence of labels elsewhere.
