You should really be comparing with the time for other time zone name 
changes to be released:

* Pacific/Enderbury to Pacific/Kanton, committed 2021-05-28, released 
2021-09-24 (2021b), 119 days.

* America/Godthab to America/Nuuk, committed 2019-11-19, released 
2020-04-23 (2020a), 156 days.

* Asia/Rangoon to Asia/Yangon, committed 2016-09-08, released 2016-09-13 
(2016g), 5 days.

* Asia/Calcutta to Asia/Kolkata and Asia/Saigon to Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh, 
committed 2008-03-18, released 2008-03-24(?) (2008b), 6(?) days.

My comments:

1. The Asia/Calcutta and Asia/Saigon naming changes pre-date the current 
maintainership by Paul Eggert, but there do not appear to be any 
non-naming changes prior to release. Releases seemed more frequent back 
in those days.

2. The Asia/Rangoon naming change was around the same time as urgent 
changes to Turkey's time zone information.
