For what it's worth, I think this is an evil side of the assert
method. Ruby says nil and false are 'false', and everything else is
true. So, if I write a method that's designed to be used as

   if my_method then ...

I'd expect to be able to test it with an assert(), but currently I
can't without writing extra (and distracting) stuff.

I think adding Boolean to Ruby would be confusing, and I'm not sure I
see the need.

At the same time, I'm wondering if it would be possible to unify nil
and false, so that they were both the same object?

Cheers

Dave
