Straits of Gibraltar seazone

This post isn't about implementing land movement there, it's about splitting the seazone to two new ones, making the one open water and the other inside the Mediterranean sea inland sea zone.

I dont really know what it would benefit, so I can't really see why this should be implemented.

What is the reason you wanna split the sea zones?

Because, if i recall correctly, it is considered an inland sea zone, and i always get confused when playing some large colonial nation or a mediterranean nation. Same goes for the weird sea above Denmark.
Also, specifically regarding the Gibraltar straits, i think we have two sets of countries, the inland sea major powers (eg. Venecia) and the open sea major powers (eg. Spain) and i think that controlling who goes in and out should also be represented by the map and how some countries make their strategies.
It has to do with being able to guard the entrance of the Mediterranean from either side accordingly to what your focus/nation is, especially when some of the wealthiest trade nodes are there.

Straits of Gibraltar is already an ocean zone. The next sea zone in is the beginning of galley territory. As both are 1 sea zone wide chokes, you can block almost all inward traffic with galleys in the seazone to the East while blocking all outward navies by sitting in SoG.

Basically, you can do what you're asking in the game right now :/.
