Comment (by peterwilsoncc):

 Replying to [comment:12 flixos90]:
 > This leads me to think we need something closer to maybe a
 `WP_DEVELOPMENT_MODE` constant, which for example could be set to
 something like `core`, `plugin`, `theme`. By default it could be either
 not set, or an empty string, signifying that no particular development
 mode at all should be used.

 Sorry, I missed this at the time.

 If different development modes are to be defined, then `site` would be
 helpful for agencies developing sites using both custom themes and custom
 plugins.

 However, I fear that would lead to the problem perceived to exist with the
 environment type variables, the need to check for multiple values.

 If the goal is to avoid a constant that over complicates things then using
 `true` or `false` seems the least complicated way of doing it.
