  >   * What is your evaluation of the proposal?

Agree.

In extensive Swift use I've never had cause to actively use Boolean 
rather than Bool.

If there is a need to keep it (which I don't see) I think it would be 
better renamed to something less succinct and confusing.

>   * Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a

Yes. Removing things, especially confusing things is good when there is 
little impact.

>   * Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?

Yes.

>   * How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick
>     reading, or an in-depth study?

Quick read.
