No, for boolean options it only includes the non-default setting.  This 
behavior was copied from the prior handcrafted help output:

  --with-devices-ARCH=NAME override default configs/devices
  --enable-debug           enable common debug build options
  --enable-sanitizers      enable default sanitizers
  --enable-tsan            enable thread sanitizer
  --disable-strip          disable stripping binaries
  --disable-werror         disable compilation abort on warning
  --disable-stack-protector disable compiler-provided stack protection
  --audio-drv-list=LIST    set audio drivers list

etc.
