This is just an implementation detail, a feature flag can very well be implemented with a Boolean in a database.
To me the main appeal of feature flags is that they allow to work on large features that often require months and many commits to finish in a main branch. This, at least to me, results in a more lightweight and more iterative development process. This contrasts with maintaining a separate branch, with perhaps separate deployment target for a large in-development features.
