what the fuck do you think BOOLEAN means omg https://social.wxcafe.net/media/G8ewCx6FV-EvHIu-r-g
@wxcafe postgres has a trinary boolean too
@wxcafe True, False and Unknown
@cadey that doesn't answer why. why not just make another type that's 3 states and not call it boolean
Null implies an absence of value. It's the Null set, yes? It's not, for instance, an uncollapsed qbit: that which has possible descrete value but has not been observed/recorded. It's a purposeful demarcation of 'absence' to a specific attribute.
But I suppose you could establish alternative interpretation with it.... AND IGNORE THE UNDERPINNINGS OF SET THEORY. D:<

What are relational databases but sets? Hell, even graph databases still rely on set operations.
