Description

Each core has property loadOnStartup to decide if the core is opened at start-up or delayed until first access.

When creating a new core and not specifying the property in the request, we take the default value from CoreDescriptor.defaultProperties which is true.

defaultProperties

  private static final Map<String, String> defaultProperties = Map.of(...., CORE_LOADONSTARTUP, "true");

Then, when we retrieve the value of the property in CoreDescriptor.isLoadOnStartup(), if the property is not the core stored properties, default value is false.

isLoadOnStartup()

    String tmp = coreProperties.getProperty(CORE_LOADONSTARTUP, "false");

Impact is low since all cores are created with value "true" when not explicitly created, using value from the default properties. This just makes the code confusing to read.
