My feeling is that the preceding long sentence has described both sides expect explicitly mentioning true and false,
whichmakes the following sentence, no matter the original version and the patched version sounds slightly redundant. So
Ithink maybe we can rework the entire paragraph like:
```
This parameter controls how changes to a partitioned table (or any of its partitions) are published. When set to true,
changesare published using the identity and schema of the partitioned table. When set to false (the default), changes
arepublished using the identity and schema of the individual partitions
where the changes actually occurred. Enabling this option allows the changes to be replicated into a non-partitioned
tableor into a partitioned table whose
partition structure differs from that of the publisher.
```
