The problem is that there are other language academies for other
languages, and we want a subtag specifically for the orthography
prescribed by the Belarusian Academy, not any other academy. We do
not register "generic" subtags that mean different things for different
languages; for example, many languages have a Northern dialect, but we
would register separate subtags for each, not a generic subtag "northern".
