Maybe helping here... To anyone with some understanding of programming and a basic understanding how `if' looks like in lisps the following lines would be at least astonishing user=> (if some-thing "then" "else") "then" user=> (if (= some-thing false) "then" "else") "then" How can some-thing evaluate to true but be equal (in whatever sense = defines equality) to false? IMHO it looks like some inconsistency in the contract between truthiness and equality. (And yes, I understand the argument that (Boolean. false) is an object and thus true; it's just the combination of both that I find very irritating.)
