US sellers have both flags: USA flag + state's flag. It would be good to have
both country's flag + EU flag displayed when browsing a store located in EU.

I was about to say it’s not worth the extra screen clutter. But there is the
benefit that many buyers, I’m sure, value the extra assurance attached to trading
with the union, and not everyone knows which countries are included. So with
that, yes.

Exactly. I live in EU and new countries joining EU it is hard to keep the list
up to date. I prefer shopping from EU stores because of all the customs reasons.
So this flag makes it easier to know if a store is in EU.
