That rule makes sense to me.

I think what he means is that
bool doSomething();
void doSomethingElse(bool);

and the only case we always call doSomethingElse with a return value of some
function or with a variable:
doSomethingElse(doSomething());
doSomethingElse(shouldNotDoSomethingElse);
etc...

and we never call it with raw true/false:
doSomethingElse(true)
doSomethingElse(false)
