> they get used to configure different environments for different customers

That is not a feature flag, that is a customer configuration option. They are different things and should not be treated in the same way.

Sure, it is possible for a feature flag to behave like a configuration option but they have different lifecycles and different audiences and so should not be confused. Of course it is easy to say that but harder in practice to maintain those differences.
