Whoever is in charge of licensing or assiging or certifying can make whatever they want a requirement...if you don't follow the requirement, you don't work. Its not a matter of being pertinent to officiating.

Wearing a patch that shows you have a license is not the same as wearing a symbol that has nothing to do with that license. I have a license plate on my car, it is not required that I put a symbol on it in order to comply with the law.

Well a flag patch must be differnet if they tell you right off the bat that a flag patch is
optional. Not only do they tell you it is optional, they go out of their way to suggest it is optional. It must not be the same thing.
