Petersburg, one of the places being disambiguated is much better known and it feels stupid to have to write St.Petersburg every time I want to link to the bigger of the two.
I think the only sensible answer is 'it depends on the readers context', in which case disambiguation is the right approach.
I don't think there's been a case where the state is sufficiently more famous than the city that we could leave out the disambiguator (the best I can come up with is Chihuahua), but I don't think we can rule it out as a possibility.

If you write an article with a disambiguator in the title, but do not want to create a disambiguation page because the ambiguous name refers to a famous place that should not be disambiguated, please add both pages to this list.
