In neither of these scenarios will the player "immediately play."

To me, #2 offers the most absurdity. The coach can and MUST reenter the DP if she is playing defense, but may NOT if she isn't playing defense.

NOTE: One American flag, not to exceed 2 inches by 3 inches, may be worn or occupy space on the jersey.

4 U.S. Code § 8 - Respect for flag (j) No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic organizations. The flag represents a living country and is itself considered a living thing. Therefore, the lapel flag pin being a replica, should be worn on the left lapel near the heart.

Same argument I made when ASA did this.

Yes it does, yes it does, yes it does and has continued to conflict with both the code and respect.
