Now we do not use the :+ magic, there is no reason to use extra
{brace} around the variable name.  Just sticking to the normal
"$meld_help_msg" would help the readers to hint that there is no
strange thing going on.

DON'T. 

The ${parameter,,pattern} expansion is one of the non-portable
bash-isms we do not use in our codebase.  Use of it won't fix the
correctness problem coming from not using --bool anyway, because ...

... any numeric value that is not 0 is taken as true.  Writing 1
here does not help.
