David Karr This is my understanding based on the comments above the the release notes of the Pipeline Groovy Plugin

Parameters are passed into the run as environment variables and are captured in a params object. This means there are three references to that parameter value:

 
                                                                env.foo
foo
params.foo

The first two return that environment variable that was set. This has to be a string because it is an environment variable. The third method retains the parameter type set because it is not used in the environment. In this case:

This functions as expected because it is a boolean param

 
                                                                properties([parameters([booleanParam(defaultValue: false, description: '', name: 'foo')])])
if (params.foo) {
    echo "true: $foo"
}
else echo "false: $foo"
 
                                                            

But this will not because it is a string from environment variable:

 
                                                                properties([parameters([booleanParam(defaultValue: false, description: '', name: 'foo')])])
if (foo) {
    echo "true: $foo"
}
else echo "false: $foo"
