Boolean value as value

[Jack-Works]

In flow.js and rbuckton's proposal, boolean value is supported as the enum key.

Boolean only have 2 value in the value space so I'm wondering if it is really useful, but it also has no harm if we support it.

enum Toggle {
    on = true, off = false
}

Should we support this use case?

if it is really useful, but it also has no harm if we support it.

some might find it useful. constraining the syntax to disallow booleans is probably unnecessary overhead.

Can an enum only have one type of thing? What's wrong with an enum that has values of true, false, 0, 1, and 'string', for example?

That's probably OK but I doubt if it is a foot gun. I have a topic for that at #8

I'm allowing boolean.
