   I don't believe there is.  FWIW, Delphi help say this:   
      
   The four predefined Boolean types are Boolean, ByteBool, WordBool, and   
   LongBool. Boolean is the preferred type. The others exist to provide   
   compatibility with other languages and operating system libraries.   
      
   Boolean:   
   False < True	   
   Ord(False) = 0	   
   Ord(True) = 1	   
   Succ(False) = True   
   Pred(True) = False   
      
   ByteBool, WordBool, LongBool:   
   False <> True   
   Ord(False) = 0   
   Ord(True) <> 0   
   Succ(False) = True   
   Pred(False) = True   
      
   And I "second" everything you said.
