They haven’t even updated it to their preferred spelling of Türkiye!
Turk here. That is not my preferred spelling, since , you know, exonyms are exonyms, and we sure as fuck did not take any action about Corn or Our “TurkeyLand” (Mısır, Hindistan [Egypt, India])
Also, it would be fucking hilarious if India ever changes their name to “Bharat” (or variant) since “Baharat” is “spice” in turkish.

I always thought the reason for wanting the change was silly, since the bird was named after the country.
The thin skinned shithead tinpot dictator probably heard a dumbass joke and took it waaay too seriously.
