Keystone vs. Keystone State

The phrase "Keystone State" is well-cited in the article (PA Manual) but I was also looking for the status of the symbol itself. On the current iteration of the state symbol webpage on the state's website, "The Keystone State" section, there's this statement: "Today the keystone is a popular symbol of Pennsylvania — it’s even used as an official symbol of Pennsylvania state government." [emphasis mine] So it says "official" but only refers to the government but not the state as a whole. Would it still be relevant here? I checked the Statutes and the PA Code and couldn't find anything. Mapsax (talk) 01:17, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
