Comment:
I don't think this is a bug. As
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/ref/forms/fields/#booleanfield
the docs] say,
Since all `Field` subclasses have `required=True` by default, the
validation condition here is important. If you want to include a boolean
in your form that can be either `True` or `False` (e.g. a checked or
unchecked checkbox), you must remember to pass in `required=False` when
creating the `BooleanField`.
Maybe you want to use `TypedChoiceField` instead.
