If it was just the flags maybe, the fact that it comes accompanied by a map with highlighted countries means the onus should be on them to, you know, learn something.

Comoros isn't highlighted (it's too small)

There is no colour coding between the flags and highlighted countries so you can't learn from this alone. You have to look elsewhere. Yet there are millions of things to look up, so I need a reason to make flags a priority over the other things I look up every day, and I don't see it. I enjoy the Geography Now channel but even that channel mostly dropped discussing the flags.
