I'm sorry, but I don't understand why you think you need this latter.

foo if (a == false)

is sufficient. If you don't like that, then you can do:

foo if (FalseClass === a)

They're equivalent.

I don't really see anything that is added in terms of readability or
functionality by adding #true? and #false?.
