Name changes correspond to organization's website and branding. We generally wouldn't add the English name as a label when it is also the primary form, but there's technically no harm in doing so and does make the record more flexible in Switzerland's multilingual context.

Accommodating this request, per discussion at curation team meeting on 2022/08/02. While ROR will not establish as a general policy the indexing of the primary name as a label, the need here, in the context of an integration, is sensible. In the future, we will likely alter the schema to include languages for every name field, as well as potentially collapse the variant name fields (acronyms, aliases, label) into a single field with both language and type qualifiers.
