This is the real problem in my experience. Creating flags is easy, removing them isn’t. We ended up building lifecycle tracking for it: each flag type has an expected lifetime, flags get marked potentially stale when they pass it, and you can see when a flag was last evaluated in each environment so you know it’s safe to delete. Someone still has to remove the code though :)
