More precisely: All the above evaluate as Boolean false. But only one
of them evaluates to False: the object bound to the name ‘False’.
>>> bool(None) == bool(False)
True
>>> None == False
False
>>> None is False
False
>>> bool('') == bool(False)
True
>>> '' == False
False
>>> '' is False
False
>>> bool(0) == bool(False)
True
>>> 0 == False
False
>>> 0 is False
False
