Look: GinTernaryValue is carefully designed so that it is representation-compatible with bool, including that GIN_FALSE is identical to false and GIN_TRUE is identical to true. I'm quite uninterested in debating whether that's a good idea or not. Moreover, there are a ton of other places besides this one where the GIN code relies on that equivalence, so we'd have to do a lot more than what's in this patch if we wanted to decouple that.
Just now I checked all the places where GinTernaryValue is used and they all trust using GIN_TRUE, GIN_FALSE and GIN_MAYBE. The only problematic place I found was at ginget.c and jsonb_gin.c
jsonb_gin.c:
The function execute_jsp_gin_node returns GIN_TRUE if the node->type is JSP_GIN_ENTRY and the value is GIN_MAYBE.
IMO, it should be GIN_FALSE?
case JSP_GIN_ENTRY: { int index = node->val.entryIndex;
