Bradd--you are not mistaken. I think that log_archive_start was deprecated
because there are very very few instances where you'd want it set to false
when the database is in archivelog mode, so they just did it for you. I
believe it is still there as an underscore parameter for those few
environments/occasions where it might need to be = false.
