Following this [discussion](https://github.com/apache/incubator-hugegraph/pull/2277#discussion_r1302507017): Through researching relevant information, we found that the semantics of `activeByDefault` are somewhat counterintuitive. In a particular pom, if a profile is activated through: 1. Specifying it via the command line using `-Pxxx` 2. Defining it in the Maven settings using `<activeProfiles>` 3. Implicit profile activation, such as `jdk`, `os`, `property`, `file` Then, within the **same** pom, a profile configured with `activeByDefault` set to true will NOT be activated. To avoid explicitly specifying profiles suppressed from activation due to the aforementioned mechanisms via `-Pxxx` in the command line, we referred to the approach outlined in the official documentation: ```xml <profiles> <profile> <id>xxx</id> <activation> <property> <name>!skip-xxx</name> </property> </activation> ... </profile> </profiles> ``` Using the property mechanism within implicit profile activation to activate profiles configured with `activeByDefault` set to true. Additionally, it's important to minimize occurrences of identical property names across different profiles. For example:  In a scenario where both profiles are activated, the value of `env` is `test` (`dev` is loaded and then overridden). Explicitly specifying `-Pdev` could result in the value of `env` becoming `dev`, which might introduce potential issues. References: 1.
