For anyone confused about the term "figleaf", I assume it's a reference to fig leafs being used by Renaissance artists to mask genitalia. So "things concealing the naked truth" approximately.

It's older than that: it's a biblical reference to Adam and Eve covering themselves.

My memory serves me wrong; thought that it being a fig leaf in particular was newer than the Bible but it's not (Genesis 1:3:7)
