    # A Boolean parameter effectively permits a method's caller
    # to decide which execution path to take. The
    # offending parameter is a kind of Control Couple.
    #
    # Currently Reek can only detect a Boolean parameter when it has a
    # default initializer.
    #
    # See {file:docs/Boolean-Parameter.md} for details.
