I deal with hundreds of these types of selectors from some inherited code. When a disable changes 2 lines of code to wrap functionality in an if block v adding many scattered if blocks to accommodate the enable case, I'll probably go with the low code solution. If I can easily accommodate enables then sure but it's just not always that easy.

This is just about what to call the variable. Instead of:

    if disable_foo:
      ...
I'm recommending:

    if not enable_foo:
      ...
