I don't see anything about changing operator.truth() in Guido's PEP, and
would be surprised if I did:  it's been the documented purpose of that
function to return 0 or 1 since 1996, and there's no apparent reason to
change it.  If you want a similar function to return True or False instead,
well, that's what the new bool() would do, and TOOWTDI.

I'm in no-concentration mode, and, yes, you should pray for me before going
to sleep, upon waking, before meals, and once for each tooth that gets
brushed.  I'll let you know whether it helps!  Thanks in advance.
