You're being unnecessarily aggressive when all I was doing was pointing
out two facts:
A) the description for America/Phoenix said "Arizona"
B) there was no indication in America/Denver that it did not apply to
parts of Arizona.

I could go back further and point out that (back when the names were
self-explanatory) they were called "US/Arizona" (again, implying in the
absence of anything else that it would be all of arizona) and "Navajo"
