And with a few other nits below:

Indentation is off. While at it, you may want to collapse it into a one
line comment.

Collapse into one line?

Indentation is off.

I know "1" implies "true", but to emphasize that the argument is
actually a boolean, could you please change the "1" to "true?"

Here too, could you please change the "1" to "true?"
