If they modify queries, the result can visibly correlate to the query, for example:
```
evantest=# select CASE WHEN TRUE THEN 'f' END as t;
t
---
f
(1 row)
```
There is no confusion. But if a user did some test by setting “display_true = f” previous and forget about it, there is
ano any indication in current SQL statement but unexpected results might be shown.

When I said “basic sanity check”, I only meant something like “display_true” cannot be “false” and “f”.
I won’t argue more. It’s also reasonable to let users take own responsibilities to stay away from wrong behavior.
