This will allow Spring Boot to use the same logic as it does when xref:features/external-config.adoc#features.external-config.typesafe-configuration-properties.relaxed-binding[relaxed binding] javadoc:org.springframework.boot.context.properties.ConfigurationProperties[format=annotation].
For example, `${demo.item-price}` will pick up `demo.item-price` and `demo.itemPrice` forms from the `application.properties` file, as well as `DEMO_ITEMPRICE` from the system environment.
If you used `${demo.itemPrice}` instead, `demo.item-price` and `DEMO_ITEMPRICE` would not be considered.
If you use `${demo.itemPrice}` instead, it will pick up the `demo.itemPrice` form from the `application.properties` file, as well as `DEMO_ITEMPRICE` from the system environment, but `demo.item-price` would not be considered.

TIP: You can also use this technique to create "`short`" variants of existing Spring Boot properties.
