These are the “brand gladiators” who came up with that flag:

Yep. There are times when marketeers are the shallowest, most superficial people on the planet. A certain institution I know once paid such a company $900,000 for a custom font to print the institution name in (and there went my raise). They do very well in these "optics" days.

Now, I'm not a Southerner but I get it. If it's a choice between the flag my ancestors died under and a neutered pattern symbolizing nothing and carefully contrived not to offend anyone imaginable, I know which way I'm going. "Here, we're taking your flag, use this one instead" does not even deserve a polite reply.
