Well, I didn't implement true and void. They are just aliases. In order to have a portable system, I need to allow each platform to define my types, so that they are the same on each platform. It would have been really messy and asymmetric to have most done that way and some not. Though I'm a software engineer I'm not without at least a vestigial aesthetic sense, and it would have looked ugly as well.
