The reality is none of us can confidently declare things as unequivocally as you do. Google knows best what their risk profile is. Mexico threatens to sue and yet you are so confident the US could not do the same?
Maybe there's a federal contract in the mix, or maybe users are federal contractors. Google is an institution, figuratively speaking. Maybe being a globally-significant provider, Google has seen the trajectory similar disputes in dredging quasi-legal cruft like official interference with their services. Maybe they recognize that once you abandon democratic decision-making, you are adrift, and that's not a place they wish to be.

You can absolutely confidently declare that Google has not been ordered to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico. First, because that hasn't happened, and second, because the President doesn't have the authority to do that. You're retreating from your claim. Google isn't "just following orders", they made a calculated decision.
