For the first proposal examples, personally I don't see why World would go in subfield a, that is defined as a country. Same quibble with Antarctica. Also, sticking all extraterrestrial areas in subfield g seems not to encode the hierarchy. If it is just string position, why not get rid of all subfields but a and just repeat. The position of extraterrestrial locations is important to users of the Lunar and Planetary Institute.
