Every time that I follow a link offered by you (or anyone else) to the RAE, I find myself on a generic page that allows me to search for something but I have no idea what to put in the search field to find the subject that, in fact, occasioned the reference. In this case, I tried "paises" but that was not at all productive.

I have no doubt that there exists somewhere on that site the discussion/list that you reference, but I have no idea how to navigate to the specific page that you have in mind.
