When could an extra "== true" or "== false" possibly make anything clearer?

  if not (x > 5)
looks normal,

  if (x > 5) == false { .. ]
is just confusing.

Why would it matter if a function returned a boolean? It's either compared for truthiness, or the comparison for truthiness or compared for truthiness, even in the most dynamic languages.
