Just A Simple Boolean Question

The eternal pain of expecting a simple true or false but getting "Yes" instead! Boolean questions should have binary answers, but somehow non-technical folks (and occasionally that one backend dev) manage to return strings like "Sure", "I think so", or my personal favorite: "It depends." The compiler in my brain throws a TypeError: Cannot convert String to Boolean every single time. The worst part? You can't even use !!response to coerce it properly!
