I assume it is a bad idea to depend on true being 1, right?? I mean, I
should assume that true could be changed to any non 0 value in the future,
right?
Why would that matter?? Just always test for "true" and "false" and you
will be fine.
What if you need to store the value in a bitmap that needs
to be 1 or 0 so they can be shifted/anded in?
Then you don't use a boolean if you are worried about it, come on, why
is this even a discussion?
