I would think about it more by use than origin. Use-wise, Crown and Jack are fairly similar insofar as most folks are going to order them with something carbonated, and I'm guessing they're generally not going to be too upset about which one they get. Someone who orders a Crown and Coke is generally going to be OK with a Jack and Coke. On the other hand, folks who drink rocks or neat are not going to be happy if they ask for bourbon or scotch and are offered Jack instead. Could be wrong, but that would be my rationale for why eliminating Crown makes sense.
