I used to enjoy these "yes but technically no" discussions, but then I understood they never lead anywhere, because they're about solving the problem in some imaginary world that only exists in some people's heads, rather than the real one. The truth is that there exist situations where using country flags is effective means of communicating the idea of a language. You might not like it, but that's how it works.
