How are authors supposed to remember whether it's apply(true) that means reapply or apply(false)? You should instead make the argument something that contains the word "reapply" somewhere, like maybe a space-separated list of case-insensitive tokens where any token other than "reapply" is ignored. So you'd do apply("reapply") if you wanted to reapply, and other flags could be added later if desired. This is both more comprehensible and more extensible.
