OK: what does that test *mean*? How can a pointer be "false"?

If you explicitly use a boolean literal in the condition, there's
basically no reason to type that instead of `nullptr`. `myPointer ==
nullptr` leaves absolutely no doubt about what your code means.

And if you have some boolean variable and you're testing it against a
pointer... why? When would that ever come up? Would this be in some
template code somewhere? Can you give an example where this is
necessary?
