Oops, silly me!

From: Samuele Pedroni <pedroni@inf.ethz.ch>

Although it was not said so explicitly, my design exercise related to Jython shows that probably a lot of Jython user code will still preserve many:

jbean.beanProp = 1 where 1 would be better written as True.

Obvisiouly the same problem exists for the flags in the all pre-exiting Python code, and all the = 0 = 1 there. And it seems Guido does not care about that.

regards.
