Torus Implementation: What does `skiptKey?` parameter do in Torus SDK?

The title already says it. I am looking into the torus docs https://docs.tor.us/wallet/api-reference/class#init and am wondering what the parameter skiptKey? do if turned to true? Is that a skipping the user to be promoted to setup Multi-Factor Authentication? Or does it do something else?

@clemens Thanks for your question.

skiptKey - Skips TKey onboarding for new users. Default value is false

The tKey manages wallets by generating shares via Shamir’s Secret Sharing scheme. Like existing 2FA systems, users must prove ownership of at least 2 out of 3 (2/3) shares to retrieve their private key.

Thanks for the swift response @vjgee. So if we turn it to true what will happen? It will not prompt users to create new shares?

For example, will the user not be prompted to setup 2FA with a secret phrase?

Yes, there will be no additional shares created.
