I find this absolutely hilarious in its irony.

Perhaps some more countries should be religion-locked?

From wikipedia:

Islam

John the Baptist is also honored as a Nabi (Arabic: نبي‎, Prophet), as Yaḥyā ibn Zakarīyā (Arabic: يحيى بن زكـريا‎ Jehiah, son of Zechariah),[119] or simply Yaḥyā (Arabic: يحيى‎). He is believed by Muslims to have been a witness to the word of God, and a prophet who would herald the coming of Jesus.[120] His father Zechariah was also an Islamic prophet. Islamic tradition maintains that John was one of the prophets whom Muhammad met on the night of the Mi'raj,[121] his ascension through the Seven Heavens. It is said that he met John and Jesus in the second heaven, where Muhammad greeted his two brothers before ascending with archangel Gabriel to the third heaven. John's story was also told to the Abyssinian king during the Muslim refugees' Migration to Abyssinia.[122] According to the Qur'an, John was one on whom God sent peace on the day that he was born and the day that he died.[123]

We just need cosmetic tags to be applied in specific circumstances. In this case it would be a "Rhodos" tag.

Or, maybe we could even see an event that breaks up the knights if they are no longer catholic, aka "the Grand Master lost control" and every provinces flips to a core or cultural ally.

You could get a rename, but the ideas would look odd, or create a Rhodes tag that never existed

What is strange about a Sunni Ulm? We are talking about Tags were a religion change destroys any sense of the tag...
It's not strange at all, actually Sunni Ulm is extremely easy to pull off. Just declare war on Genoa or another HRE tag as the Ottomans, vassal Ulm as a side, and force religion. However, yes, it is not as out of place as a country such as the Holy Roman Empire or the Pope.
