This code is from 2010, and I agree that it's not needed any more and can
be removed. Feel free to upload a CL (https://v8.dev/docs/contribute).
Is there a particular reason that you want these lines to be removed?

TL;DR: In the future, use `v8_flags.foo` instead of `FLAG_foo` for
accessing flags. We will have a smooth transition over the next
