Boxlang.json consider not being negative

BoxLang

From boxlang.json:

{
    "modules" : {
        "compat" : {
            "disabled" : false,
            // etc
        }
    }
}

Would you consider flipping "disabled" : false to be "enabled" : true. It’s generally accepted as a good idea to keep settings / values positive where possible, as thinking in negative increases cognitive load. Occasionally there’s a gain in clarity by having a negative setting, but I don’t think this is the case here.
