A small and simple array to convert any and all truthy/falsey values into a hard true or false, in PHP.

bools.php

<?php
//I don't play this mismatched boolean logic bullshit, its true or
//  false, never 1 or 0
$bool_replaces = [
	'0' => false,
	"1" => true,
	false => false,
	true => true,
	0 => false,
	1 => true,
	null => false,
	"true" => true,
	"false" => false
];

Wait, what about $value = (boolean) $value? Wouldn't that do the same thing?
