I completely agree preferring positive language and particularly avoiding double negation logic is better design. This change can be implemented relatively easily as well. The catch is that making this change would invert the meaning of the underlying option and hence without additional support code saved reports would suddenly behave the other way around. We don't have code that would help us convert report options based on semantic changes unfortunately. Someone would have to write it to provide a seamless transition from old to new semantics. And that then pulls in the complexity of backward compatibility.
