The flag applies the transitive property[1] when propagating constraints. This gives more accurate results, but at the cost of analyzer speed.
if (4 < x) {
if (x < y) {
if (y == 0) {
// Unreachable since the above three conditions cannot
// all be true at the same time (without multithreading).
}
}
}
