Good design is always hard to find, my personal solution would be a drop-down with the title: "fnurbification" and the options "Enabled" and "Disabled". More systems ought to be built like this, ambiguity is a black check for later economic loss.

    fnurbification  [X]
is not ambiguous. Drop downs for on/off is pure waste

Ditto. IMO toggles are the best option to simplify small dropdowns.
