How about everyone follow their org's protocol, and then everyone will be happy.
Depending on what the "correct protocol" may dictate, I would still call it idolatry. At least the National officers admits their letter worship to some degree, which in some respects is redeeming.

Ex. If protocol dictates the prohibition of non-members wearing the letter or sheild, then that IMHO is not idolatry.

If protocol dictates the prohibition of non-members touching or using non-clothing items adorned with the letters or shield, that that is idolatry.

I do believe in a balance and a reasonable "use of 'nalia by non-members" threshold.
