True, but isn't the issue that a malformed cert including self signed certs are 
rejected? A self signed cert is not insecure, it's just less secure than a root 
signed cert, and only because a background check has been done against the cert 
owner. Otherwise a self signed cert is just as valid if you know you can trust 
it, as when connecting to you domain controller or copier for the first time on 
a LAN. After that, the cert theoretically cannot be spoofed.

Remember to leave it set to true for production, though. Otherwise, malicious 
parties could intercept data transmissions whilst presenting their own fake 
certificates, negating the whole point of encrypting data in transit.
