Yeah I tend to agree. He says being able to recognise it doesn’t matter and that it being simple enough for a child to draw is irrelevant. I can see his point with the latter, and I think he makes a good point about how people have made allowances for flags like the US flag but not others. But I also think the ones with seals or coats of arms really go too far, to the point that they often genuinely cannot be clearly distinguished if looked at on a flagpole from a distance, among a number of other flags, when the wind isn’t blowing. Because that’s the situation that a good flag design should be clear.
It seems to me like he got fixed on the specific example of “a child should be able to draw it from memory” when the point of that is more “it should be simple, and it should be easy to recognise even if the details are off - as if a child had drawn it from memory”. Whichis perhaps a fault of the writers of the pamphlet trying to be a bit too pithy, I don’t know
