Is there a way to control whether or not to split the Chinese field into Simplified and Traditional?

Also, when the name is the same between the two, is there a better way to toggle the Hong Kong flag other than just copy-pasting the exact same text from "zh" to "zh-t"?

Traditional vs. Simplified Chinese

Is there a way to control whether or not to split the Chinese field into Simplified and Traditional? While most of the names are just converted between the two systems, some New Horizons names are very different between the two (see Giant Trevally and Dace). Also, when the name is the same between the two, is there a better way to toggle the Hong Kong flag other than just copy-pasting the exact same text from "zh" to "zh-t"?

Hm, well the idea was, if Simplified = Traditional, to only use the Simplified param - we don't use both EU / US Spanish or French (or English even) unless there are differences. It is true that sometimes the fish and bugs names are very different in the american/european case as well. This is my fault because I was used to working with villagers and they have the same names in both Simplified and Traditional and I didn't think of other uses so I suggested to merge the rows into one. Oops. I'd still prefer for them to be merged for the sake of villager pages, but perhaps there could be a special Traditional2 parameter?
