For the locale data, we do not intake data like this via PRs. If the ticket is approved, then the data would be handled by translators, via the survey tool.

@macchiati the data is already present for all these languages, just in the wrong place (as an alternative "short" name instead of the primary name). Does the survey tool have a mechanism for performing this sort of bulk update? Or would we need to manually perform a cut and paste for >100 languages?

That is, the implementations using CLDR can choose which they want.

But, unless they choose to do additional work, they will use the long name by default. Also, the choice of primary name determines the generated name of the flag emoji (🇵🇸) in annotationsDerived.

(Also, even if CLDR were to default to a "long" name—which would be inconsistent with other entries, for example it uses "Laos" and not "Lao People's Democratic Republic"—the ISO 3166-1 name, which IANA also uses, would be "State of Palestine", not "Palestinian Territories".)
