the fontsize is automatic so the "at .." interferes

here is an alternative (call by name):

   \definesymbol[BR][{\getnamedglyphdirect{flags}{br}}]
   \definesymbol[PT][{\getnamedglyphdirect{flags}{pt}}]

now, because you want it smaller i'll add this

   \definesymbol[BR][{\getnamedglyphdirectscaled{.7}{flags}{br}}]
   \definesymbol[PT][{\getnamedglyphdirectscaled{.7}{flags}{pt}}]

in the next upload
