IMHO, this is not right. .size for hash and array will show the number
of elements in the datastructure, a scalar always has exactly 1 element
(or we probably can say 0 elements if it's undef). So I'd say:
Template::Stash::SCALAR_OPS->{ size } = $Template::Stash::SCALAR_OPS->{
defined $_[0] ? 1 : 0 };
