Re: [iris-reasoner-support] booleans

[Florian F. <flo...@st...>]

Hi Nathan,
sorry for the late answer. I am not aware of a definite reason for that
- at least not from a technical point of view. However, IRIS supports a
range of different datatypes so this explicit treatment of booleans is
mostly for the sake of consistency.

Best,
Florian
