Though back on the topic of Fallout and maps, have you seen any of the "Fallout Cartography" youtube videos? One of the Fallout youtubers is doing some lore analysis from a "geographic perspective" lately and it's pretty insightful, reminds me a lot of the goings on of league organization here, though I must say, I do enjoy your universe of things being friendly and safe. That kind of "cozy catastrophe" as TV tropes puts it is an underrated feeling. It's like the aesthetics of the wasteland but the warm fuzzies of everything being alright.
I checked out a video from the channel. It is pretty cool of going through the map. I have started referring more to the real map of Boston for some of my decision-making lately, including some of the teams added to the BYDL for the 2304 season. In the future, I have considered to reverting back to the real-life names of some places throughout, but that would have to be a next generation sort of change.

Just looking in the CBO area, I have hit upon a lot of in-game places that are not exactly specified as its own town in the game: Boston (of course), Concord, Lexington, Salem, Cambridge, Everett, Nahant, Malden, Natick, Lynn, Arlington, Clifton, Medford, and Revere.

Also, I went ahead and got OOTP 24 half off, so I am checking through what might be new in there. I have not noticed major things so far, but I do hope there are more "printable" screens than before.
