Then what would a "generic" flag be? Single-color flags are often used by
political groups (e.g. all black = fascist, so if you thought to avoid the
issue by using that, you've just made it worse).

So yep, as you point out, the generic flag exception is somewhat hard to
work with.
The only reasonable definition of "generic" I can see is "this flag is not
used to represent a country", e.g. a set of flags being used as an icon
for "localization".
That's unfortunately not the definition being used here. If it was, it
would be a more helpful clause.
