Not sure. If we aren't completely convinced about actually dropping them yet, I'm not sure that making the option more apparent to users is the right thing to do. |

That makes sense. Marking this as draft until we feel confident enough to advertise this option. I've been running it for half a year :-) |

Closing for now. This is a simple change, but doesn't make sense yet, and can easily be reopened / redone once there is a clear path forward for #25725. |

A small step towards dropping checkpoints entirely, make the option to disable them a bit easier to find.
Before this PR this required
bitcoind --help-debug.A potential next step could be to change the default to 0 in a future release, then drop the checkpoints in the next release (#28524) and then drop all the checkpoint code one release later.
