Where is the inconsistency? bool('False') returns the same result as for
any other non-empty string:
>>> bool("not true")
True
>>> bool("no")
True
>>> bool("incorrect")
True
>>> bool("wrong")
True
>>> bool("Faux")
True
>>> bool("Falsch")
True
>>> bool("Falso")
True
>>> bool("偽")
True
>>> bool("Ложно")
True
Treating the string "False" as identical to the named global False would
be inconsistent.
