You'd first have to get everybody to agree on what ternary logic is. Ask three experts, and you'll get four answers. Mercifully, most computer people only encounter ternary logic in the form of SQL NULL, although the many edge cases make it quite the doozy. My experiments with FPGAs introduced me to nine-valued logic and development tools stuck in the 1980s, at which point I decided that I should stick to writing software instead.
