Using double negation !!x throughout, there are only advantages and no
disadvantage. I hit that design with Pacquiao punches over the past
week or so, and couldn't find any shortcoming. It's consistent across
positive and negated uses, easy to understand, easy to define,
consistent with built-in types, and Walter likes it.
I'm not sure that's a great idea. What if you define your own FuzzyBool
type (containing some sort of probability) and FuzzyBool.opUnary!("!")
returns an inverted FuzzyBool (with 1 - original probability) instead
of a regular bool, you'd have an infinite loop trying to evaluate
!!myBoolValue.
