From f3cb15c88afa2e87067de3c6106664b3f7cd4035 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rotzbua Date: Mon, 27 Feb 2023 03:10:34 +0100 Subject: gh-91038: Change default argument value to `False` instead of `0` (#31621) The argument is used as a switch and corresponds to a boolean logic. Therefore it is more intuitive to use the corresponding constant `False` as default value instead of the integer `0`.
