The code reads this property and treats the setting as enabled only when its value is the text “true”; the supplied default is true. This line alone does not show what changes for users or admins.

The access check reads this property to decide whether to allow access: when its value is the string 'true', access is allowed; otherwise, only admins are allowed. The property defaults to true if it is unset, but benchmarking records are always denied.

ACL script: pa_scripts
When set to false, access is denied to everyone; otherwise, access is granted only to users with the PA data collector role. If unset, it defaults to true, so the role check applies.
