FWIW I write C# for food and to me D bool is better than C#
bool. Didn't watch, but if it's about the DIP I think of, its
rationale was overload rules, Walter said he's not opposed to
tune them. It was derailed into discussion about strong bool?
At the time the DIP was written, we didn't know Walter conflates
bool and bit. Now that we do a new DIP could argue differently
that bool and bit should not be conflated and that that would
also fix the overload issues.
