Clearly you have run out of mapping to find time to spot this :-D I recall the very early discussions and the first draft of Map Features that we said it really didn't matter too hoots whether it was yes/true/1 as there was enough understanding in the value to know what it meant. I'm still tagging most stuff with "true" and I can't give a reason why. I'm not even remotely coding orientated so why I should have picked true/false over yes/no I cannot say. But like you, the time making the change is wasted. Far more productive to go and map something.
