>Organizations who adopt feature flags see improvements in all key operational metrics for DevOps: Lead time to changes, mean-time-to-recovery, deployment frequency, and change failure rate.

Is this true? unfortunately there's no sources indicated, and a quick check on scholar doesn't show me anything of the sort.

There are a few case studies listed in most of the feature flag solutions, of course, each organization is completely different and the maturity of each organization varies. But feature flags are a 2-way-door decision, meaning that you can adopt them at smaller scale, try it out and see if it works for you before making a decision.

Here's a list of case studies from some of the solutions referred in the comments, some focus on operational metrics, others in lead time to changes: https://www.getunleash.io/case-studies https://launchdarkly.com/case-studies/ https://www.flagsmith.com/case-studies
