The reason is consistency.
The short names are used for all the remaining countries. It's inconsistent to use the long name for two of them.
Political names are not meant to be used in UI. You don't see "French Republic" or "Federal Republic of Germany" in dropdown lists.
CZ and CG now have an official short name just as the others, so it should be used just as the others'.
