The Irish Tricolour flag represents the country of the Republic of Ireland, 26 counties of the island, which in fact doesn’t include the 6 counties that St Patrick mainly operated in. In fact, it can be quite offensive to many people living in the place St Patrick mainly operated in, due to a civil conflict.
St Patrick also has his own flag - a red saltire on a white background - which deliberately represents him.
Making St Patrick’s day a festival of Irish Nationalism specific to the Republic of Ireland makes zero sense, and using a flag which only represents part of the island, especially since many Americans are also descended from Ulster Scots in Northern Ireland.

Same. There’s gotta be a fucking flute or a lambeg drum just to appease the orange order.
I’d like St Patrick’s Saltire as it would be consistent with England and Scotland which may also be part of a dissolved UK by then. Kinda like how the frenchy countries use tricolours and the germy countries use horizontal tricolours
I think boob harp is my second preference. It looks cool and would be funny to have a boob on our flag.
