I guess the disconnect is that some would argue there is more than one way to show respect for your flag, rather than the absolutist nature of your post. Is there anything saying that one must stand for the flag to show respect? Or that anything other than standing is disrespect? 

I think it is universally accepted that standing for your flag and anthem is a sign of respect. If you choose not to do that; you're failing to show respect (aka disrespect).

If we are to believe your narrative and agree that folks not standing for the Anthem are showing respect for the Nation; then why are they doing it? Cramps, saving energy, getting a better view of the Flag?  They are kneeling for one reason and that reason is to not respect the flag and the Nation for which it stands.
