This is the Javadoc for the method that the checks are referring to:
```
/**
* Returns {@code true} if and only if the system property
* named by the argument exists and is equal to the string
* {@code "true"}. (Beginning with version 1.0.2 of the
* Java<small><sup>TM</sup></small> platform, the test of
* this string is case insensitive.) A system property is accessible
* through {@code getProperty}, a method defined by the
* {@code System} class.
* <p>
* If there is no property with the specified name, or if the specified
* name is empty or null, then {@code false} is returned.
*
* @param name the system property name.
* @return the {@code boolean} value of the system property.
* @throws SecurityException for the same reasons as
* {@link System#getProperty(String) System.getProperty}
* @see java.lang.System#getProperty(java.lang.String)
* @see java.lang.System#getProperty(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
*/
