In this case I'm actually looking to see if a string is being passed
(show it one way) a number (show it a second way) or a boolean is
being passed (show a third way: ✓ or 𐄂 ). Otherwise yes, coercing
would be trivially easy :-). My solution is to have a manual setting
index for display method, rather than auto-detection which is always
preferable from a noodling POV.
Thanks

Can you somehow use a string multiplexer to coerce a string output
from your numeric value? For example, placing "False" in input 0,
and "True" in input 1, and using your current 0/1 to trigger?

I have a need to see if an object has been from a boolean input

Later on I want to test the object and say, if this is a Bool
display result as True (✓) and False (𐄂) not just 0 or 1. Seems
like it can't be don't and I need to workaround it.
