Ah, sorry, it's my misread.  I guess you have any insistence, so...

One defect is that AEST is not general in Australia from the report.
If suddenly we change from EST to AEST, can you say there is no
problem?  Well, to be honest, I don't know there are any more
drawbacks.  But from IST example, uniqueness of timezone name is not
the absolute requirement.  I guess your question is derived from
"timezone should be unique", but I think it's not really necessary
thing as Paul Eggert said.
