The Russian Naval Jack has a puzzling similarity to the American Confederacy flag. Coincidence?

13:00 This is a very popular misconception, even Russian newspapers of the time got the idea of this flag wrong (as seen in the picture, it's written "new Russian national flag" there). It wasn't a national flag, it was just a nice sympol to be used by citizens. It has never replaced other flags and wasn't officially adopted as a civil/state/national flag. Modern tricolor was official in that time

Флаг 1914го года (кажется, он назывался "флаг единения царя с народом") не был официальным флагом. Царская администрация предлагала использовать его на патриотических митингах, праздниках и в гражданском быту. Официальным оставался классический триколор. Кстати, сейчас он становится более популярным среди русских умеренных националистов. "Ельцинский" бело-лазарево-алый никогда не существовал. В те года не были установлены определенные номера за цветами полос флага и разные производства делали флаг каких угодно оттенков красного и синего. А спустя лет 20 кто-то закинул на Вики информацию, что лазарево-алый был якобы официальным и пошло-поехало.

The 1991 Russia flag wasn't actually a light blue, it's just a misinterpretation of the government explanation of the new flag. The "changing" of the shade was actually just a clarification of the shade of blue that they originally meant

But in fact, the color of the flag was different until 1993. For example, in the Resolution of the Supreme Council of the RSFSR dated August 22, 1991 No. 1627/I-I, it was stated that the color of the flag is white-light blue-scarlet. In addition, the flag that was hung over the Kremlin after the collapse of the USSR can now be viewed at the Yeltsin Center in Yekaterinburg. You can see there that the colors are different from those now. I don't think it was just a misinterpretation

Sometimes, even at official events, flags with light stripes are used, but this doesn't carry any additional meaning.

Did I miss where you actually show the Confederate Flag? That seems like a large omission. Also, the "National Flag" of the CSA is not what you are thinking about. The original National Flag has a blue field in the upper left with seven white stars in a circle and then three bars (red/white/red) for the rest of the flag (the "Stars and Bars"). What you are probably thinking about (and never show) is the Confederate Battle Flag which has the blue cross (called the "Southern Cross") with 13 stars (for the 11 states in the CSA plus two states, Missouri and Kentucky which they hoped would join) on a field of Red. This was later adapted for use on the second National Flag which had the Southern Cross in the upper left and the rest of the flag white (not a great choice). They later added a red bar at the far end of the field of white.

"An unofficial flag just needs to be used long enough by enough people." Then there's Northern Ireland / Ulster, the region that's so contentious with flags that the historical St Patrick's Saltire agreed upon by both sides doesn't get used by either anymore...so no flag, official or unofficial.

While the Dutch indeed made the first tricolor, they only influenced Luxembourg and Russia, which itself influenced many countries, but far from every horizontal tricolors and none of the vertical ones
