No, that only shows that the ISO 3166-2 registry is a bad basis for Unicode flags since having things lose meaning over time should not be acceptable for a text encoding. Flags have another issue here in that they can change even when the country stays the same - a recent example here being Afghanistan, but also France who recently changed the official shades of the colors in their flag. Ideally you'd want a new Unicode representation for any changed flags in order to not retroactively change the meaning in old documents. |
