The upside-down flag

Context: "Is this point where we turn our flag upside down?"

Let us preserve the most important meaning of the upside-down flag:

As a distress signal in times immediate mortal danger, such as a sinking ship.

Extending the idea to an entire nation implies hope of rescue by other nations. That doesn't make sense to me.
