> Being able to see the YES means its enabled...

I think that's it, too... but certain my users would be screaming if I
ever   rolled  out  something  this  (relatively)  impenetrable.  It's
well-implemented,  don't  get me wrong -- smooth and all that -- but I
don't  know what modern-world widget it's supposed to be emulating. An
old  toaster  switch  from the tenement days? Or one of those handheld
scrambled-picture puzzles (not a comforting analogy in a UI)?

No offense!

P.S. Maybe what it might fit for as is a "blind toggle" when the names
are not literally Yes/No. Like when the default is "Englebert" and the
user  might  not  know that "Not Englebert" == "Beeblebrot", they just
know  they want "Not Englebert". So if you can only show one, you show
the more familiar of the two (assuming that is also the default).
