Donetsk Label at OpenStreetMap

Now, when Donetsk became the hot spot of the civil war at the Ukraine I decided to take a glance at the map of the war zone. Of course I used OSM for this. But despite I knew the approximate location of the city I couldn't find it for several minuets. I was confused... The reason was that "Donetsk" label (label of the city which is the administrative center of the Donetskaya region BTW) at the scales smaller than 10 km is suppressed by the label of adjusted town "Makeevka". WTF?! 

"Donetsk" ("Донецьк") label at OSM is suppressed by the label of adjusted town
