Yes indeed: there was a time when I remember some similar flag was used on old-fashioned published channel-listings in print-media [newspapers/radio-times/tv-times].

Friends called it the "smut flag" and its presence kinda guaranteed they'd put its VideoPlus+ "PlusCode" into their VCR to record it for back-from-the-pub-on-a-friday-night viewing.

These days we have Babestation-on-demand.
