So rather than 'unpacking' tuples, I'm using slice() to directly define

I don't see how fixing this makes harder to treat True and False as

then be it, but I don't think it's so.
True in ['something', False]
In your semantics, this would evaluate to True because ('something' ==
True) is True.
For those of you using emacs, here's the elisp code that allows you to
syntax color computer language source code in your blog or website.
