It's a bikeshed argument, but why not:

I know `true` and `false` are keywords, but why confuse people? What is
a "true" inline?

I don't think it's about confusion or aesthetic.

For me it's about flexibility and evolution.

pragma(inline, always);
pragma(inline, never);

You can easily add new meaning.
pragma(inline, whatever);

There are maybe some potential here, why to preclude.
