38. Create "Boolean" superclass of TrueClass / FalseClass
39. ɹɹɹɹɹɹɹ٫Լ Status: Rejected
40. Rejected for several reasons: many gems and libraries had already introduced Boolean class. I don't want to break them. true and false are the only representative of true-false values. In Ruby. nil and false are falsy values, and everything else is a true value. There's no meaning for having a superclass of TrueClass and FalseClass as Boolean. Matz. ʢԼઢ͸Ҿ༻ऀʣ
