Name change to Isolation Station? Current name is too long and difficult to remember, this one would be an improvement. Another variant could be Iceolation Station, incorporating Ice to signify the polar location of the trope.

Name change decisions are decided in the Trope Repair Shop. Although, unless somebody can establish misuse or underuse because of the name, it's unlikely to be changed.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"
While nothing appears to specifically say "No Real Life Examples", there isn't an RL section. I have to ask if it's safe or appropriate to add one? Thinking of the Real Life story of the Russian base in Antarctica where relations between the staff members there became so strained and poisoned that a murder happened - the sense of isolation on the very edge of the world contributed to an argument that might otherwise have had non-fatal consequences.
