Ive been thinking about your post that the 18-star flag wasnt official.
Maybe thats the point. Qs image of the 18-star flag with rounded corners means the project in Asia wasnt official and they cut corners to do it.
Now that, my LadyJane, is an EXCELLENT observation and thinking out side of the proverbial box! However, we know their trip to Asia was official and a no-holds-barred trip. . . so exactly what part of the trip may not have been?
Some have speculated that President Trump had an unscheduled, unofficial, cut-corners (i.e. cut the State Department out-of-the-loop) meeting with North Korea's Kim Jong-Un either IN NK or when Trump visited the Forbidden City in Beijing.
Perhaps you may have hit on the real meaning of the eighteen star flag with cut corners. I've never seen one that would fly right with pole side rounded corners like that. Hmmmmm.
On the other hand, LadyJane, it may be just that being a standard Twitter emoji flag, that is the size the stars needed to be to represent the star field and still show up at that size and resolution and you may be chasing an illusion based on nothing at all meaningful.
Apple has a better emoji flag, so that may not be the reason. I am not sure what emoji other platforms have for their flag emblems. Here's Apple's: 🇺🇸, I am not certain what others may see on a non-Apple platform but on an Apple platform that shows up as a waved flag with a multiple starred field of blue and a shadowed field of red and white stripes. But Apple replaces the emoji revolver seen on other platforms with a green toy squirt gun. GRRRRR.
Can anyone with a Twitter Account check to see if that is a standard Twitter emoji choice for an American Flag?
PS, the image isn't Q's but Trump's in a Tweet. May be one and the same, but until we are sure, we shouldn't attribute one to the other and vice verse.

Another thought about the 18-star flag with rounded corners.
It wasn’t an official flag, but was it intended to indicate a false flag?
Was Q thanking Asia for helping us deal with the Hawaiian missile threat that was a false flag??
