Yeah, we tried to change this recently but W&A shot it down with the argument that bool is to be understood as a 1-bit integer rather than an actual Boolean value that isn't tied to specific integer values. I disagree with that reasoning, but I don't think W&A are going to change their stance on that anytime in the foreseeable future. T -- "You know, maybe we don't *need* enemies."
