      Insert new section under Number: Logical (Number), to read:

      A logical value is a subtype of number where TRUE() returns 1 and FALSE() returns 0.
      The implicit conversion operator "Convert to Logical" 5.3.10, when a number is passed as a condition, 0 is considered False and all other numeric values are considered True.
      Note: Boolean values may be a distinct type from Number. 3.5

      Logical Boolean now includes:

      ***
      Logical values may be implemented as a distinct, distinguishable type from numbers, so that ISNUMBER(TRUE()) and ISLOGICAL(1) evaluates to FALSE(). However, logical values may also be implemented as a subtype of Number, where TRUE() simply returns 1 and FALSE() simply returns 0. Note that due to the implicit conversion operator "Number to Logical" (discussed below), when a number is passed as a condition, 0 is considered False and all other numeric values are considered True.
      ***
      Should appear as subtype of number.
