You are right of course (my bad): bool(expr) could be considered as
being True according to these specifications (and anyway "True" is
always a good answer). Though these are specifications for SR and does
not apply to the entire library. It is not clear to me what global
specification we could hav
I am reading this differently, but that may be my lack of knowledge of
English.
I thought "Return True, unless provably zero" would give true, if something
cannot be shown to be zero.
