-1 This is a perfect example of why mass-updates following a certain pattern are a bad idea.
The properties files in the start component define critical startup parameters that cannot be changed without critically corrupting or even crashing the system. Therefore, I believe you should study each variable separately before deciding if you are going to change it.

Among them 53 are declared final, this does not make sense to me. Because a variable which depends on a properties is cached and can be dynamically changed. You simply change the value in the properties file and clear the cache in webtools (either all caches or only the properties cache). So it's not a constant. We also use EntityUtilProperties, but same can happen with DB values, just change it and clear cache. Because of that, IMO those variables should never be final, it's contradictory. What do you think? Jacques
