Is this desired because

(a) there is actual linguistic content in Sercquiais (or the "Sark 
variety" of some other language) that needs to be tagged,

(b) because there is a desire to create CLDR locale data for Sark, or

(c) simply because CLDR somehow expects every UN M.49 code element to 
have a corresponding ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code element?

The latter, at least, would seem to be an artificial assumption.
