I really think you should think of it as a choice the developer of an
application makes instead of a choice an application user makes. A
setsegfaultenabled() could just be another step of initializing the
application akin to setting up the logging module, for instance. In that
situation, a function call has a much lower barrier for use than a CLI
option or environment variable where you'd have to create a wrapper script.
