> As in the case of sgn-US, right?

The only argument for sgn-US is historical.  Unfortunately, historical
arguments trump other arguments.  There is, fortunately, no historical
argument AFAIK for roa-{GG,JE}.

"A man fell out of an airplane.  Fortunately, he had a parachute on.
Unfortunately, it failed to open.  Fortunately, there was a haystack
beneath him.  Unfortunately, there was a pitchfork in it.  Fortunately,
he missed the pitchfork.  Unfortunately, he missed the haystack."
