Yes, but that check for "\n" is really irrelevant. It's required to be functionally identically, but not semantically.
Semantics are the real issue here. The regex is saying "Do you have a string that matches the beginning of the string, then t, r, u, e and then the end of the string", and the compare is saying "Is the string the word 'true'?" "Is this the word I want" is the real intent.
