Many of those criteria he used are likely based on military criteria and having a generally illiterate population (common in the 18th and 19th centuries).
I think that’s his main problem with them. If your flag can’t be distinguished without printing your name on it, maybe consider a redesign.
If it can be, then the name on it is redundant and useless.

It looks too busy in person, IMO. But it does satisfy the criteria of the video.
Citizens in Utah tried to do a referendum on the new flag law to get it on the ballot for everyone to vote on. They failed to get the required number of signatures only getting around 50K out of the 134K they needed.
