Minor nit, referring to secondary sources, even ones so
well-maintained as wikipedia, has rather often led to confusion
in the ccTLD space. The primary source for this information is
here, I encourage people to refer to it instead:

https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#search

Using the new UI, how would one identify the ISO-3166 codes that
have been reserved for user defined purposes (i.e., AA, QM-QZ,
XA-XZ, and ZZ)?

The decoding table was extremely useful.  It’s a shame ISO decided
to remove it.

I agree, but, progress ... ?
