That, I also learned, is a common misconception. Flag code just says pick it up off the ground.

You’re correct

Contrary to an urban legend, the flag code does not state that a flag that touches the ground should be burned. Instead, the flag should be moved so it is not touching the ground.

I guess just if it gets tattered you’re supposed to dispose of it properly.
