Yes, that's true. I fear it was me who introduced the
format var=true|false with the documentation of
--remove-ovm-work-files
I also used that with splitter, e.g. keep-complete=true|false
I think I used it because it is common for tags.

My understanding is that the "no-" prefix is similar to removing the option,
and with --check-roundabouts in combination with drive-on-right or
drive-on-left
it doesn't have the wanted effect, as it triggers the automatic detection.
I agree that drive-on=right|left would be much better.
