The original mention of 'true'/'false' refers to all truthy and falsey values, which include 0, None, empty lists, etc., and saying True excludes those as True refers to just the boolean value. I also don't think that it's all that helpful for a table to have an entry to say x and y then its explanation also say x and y, so I would actually recommend just sticking with the original for this and section.
