The idea was the same as for America/Indiana/Petersburg. We have that 
name because America/Petersburg would likely be confused with 
Petersburg, Virginia.  We have America/Argentina/San_Juan because 
America/San_Juan would likely be confused with San Juan, Puerto Rico.

There was no similar confusion for Brazilian locations so there was no 
need to create a subdirectory for Brazil.
