Kubectl -f Abbreviation

I am new to Kubectl commands, I met

kubectl -f -lapp=nginx

As from documentation, and the command --help

-f, --follow=false: Specify if the logs should be streamed.

I want to confirm, if I use -f like above in command, does that mean:

kubectl --follow=true -lapp=nginx

I am asking this because documentation said --follow=false is default, so if I use -f, in this case, it means --follow=true, is my understanding correct ?

Yes, it will do the same thing for you. --follow=true and -f both are same.

here is an example of full command to show log with -f or --follow=true:

kubectl --follow=true logs -n $Namespace pod_name -c container_name

kubectl  logs -n $Namespace pod_name -c container_name -f
