Aside from confusing people, does it actually hurt anything? It's not too hard to imagine that someone might make a type conform to `Boolean` because, within their code, the semantics of "x || y” are clear and that reads better than "x.foo || y.foo".
I agree it feels out of place, though. What about renaming it to something like "CustomBooleanConvertible”? - Dave Sweeris On Jun 29, 2016, at 01:44, Douglas Gregor via swift-evolution <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: > Hello Swift community, > > The review of SE-0109 "Remove the Boolean protocol" begins now and runs > through July 4, 2016.
