Naming is hard. I still don't know what noul means. I don't mind calling a probabilistic boolean as boolean at all.

When I first saw the launch with "System One" and "noul" I already knew they had some marketing person pushing this internally because you can swap it all for "classifier" and "boolean".

Typesafe’s biggest blunder by far, they could have at least set the standard and left their mark that way.
