I think its easier to read if you are clear from the start user input is
optional, and so a default value is used first, and use input overrides
these initial system defaults.

"But he does not", I guess you meant, "But if he does not"...

Hm, how about:

The actual value used in computations for creating the filesystem.
This is initialized with sensible default values, if initialized to 0
the value is considered disabled. User input can optionally override
default values. If the field is a string and not a number, the value
is set to a positive non-zero number when user input has been supplied.

Modulo "But he does not"/ "but if no user input is not passed then
the originally set defaults will be used"
