Flow Designer Get Catalog Variables - Yes/No type output value in Zurich

Hello - we have this Zurich issue and would apreciate your input.

In Zurich release we observed that Service Catalog type Yes/No variables when leveraged with Flow Designer > Get Catalog Variables action output Runtime Value true/false as opposed to yes/no in Yokohama or Xanadu releases (added some screen shots for context)

Are you aware of some system property that mitigates this issue? Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks all.

@Ankur Bawiskar @Dr Atul G- LNG @kaushal_snow ServiceNow answered to the HI Case and they do have a property that will revert behaviour. 
Add system property "com.glide.hub.flow.catalog_variables.yes_no_as_boolean" and set value to false.

Also, try repairing or upgrading the Flow Designer plugin once to see if that resolves the issue.

So it's a bug.

Which developer would want a Yes/No value to be converted to True/False after upgrade.

It's good that they provided the solution.
