There is a lot of wrong headed flag usage out there in any case. For
example, flags should never be used to identify languages. At best any
effort to do so is going to be inaccurate. At worst the result is
offensive to some people and illegal in some places. … yet there is a
lot of free software that conflates flags and languages.
