@Natasha_Jay "No meaning", that's thoughtful. You could fly no flag but that wouldn't be proper. Or I suppose anyone observing you might decide you're too lazy to fly a flag.
These should all be statuses in Teams, complete with flags.

Well they date back to the days of cannons and sailing ships, above all flammable ones with months at sea.
Semaphore required proximity and there was a risk of unintended consequences ...
I invite you to finish the gag yourself as I can't decide on the punchline; or at least a clean one. -
they are still valid on the sea and tidal waterways (although nowadays folk use VHF radio and other communications methods).
P (Papa) is also known as "Blue Peter", which inspired the BBC kids TV programme (which is still running, but seems to be operating from the lifeboats rather than the full size vessel)
