Can anyone describe what these settings.xml parameters do?

[Sinical]

There are a few of the settings in the xml file that I'm confused as to what they do exactly or want to make sure

<DisableProtections>false</DisableProtections>
<ForceDismExe>false</ForceDismExe> (I assume this forces to only use DISM.exe?)
<ForceWimLib>false</ForceWimLib> (And this I assume wimlib.exe?)
<SplitImageSize>4000</SplitImageSize>

What do these mean exactly?

MDL is not the official or unofficial home of NTLite, ask your questions here, be patient and you will get an answer.

<DisableProtections> disables safety checks on component removals
<ForceDismExe> and <ForceWimLib> force NTLite to use native DISM for servicing, instead of internal functions
<SplitImageSize> is the max filesize for split WIM's (.swm). < 4096 KB to fit FAT32 partitions.

No, you don't need to play with them.
