Minor annoyance, doesn't follow rules.

Which option is set to False did you even see it?

The logging options in server.properties should be in individually named properties if we're following the normally accepted rules for defining config variables.

# Logging settings
log-notes = true
file-logging = True, True, True, True, True, True, True, True, False, True, True, True, True, True, True, True, True
console-logging = True, True, True, True, True, True, True, True, False, True, True, True, True, True, True, True, True

It was implemented as a short term solution for server that really wanted to be able to disable logging some things, on the assumption that in the longer term a proper logging configuration system and GUI would be provided

(Although 3 years later and still no proper logging configuration yet)
