@putout/plugin-remove-useless-type-conversion

It is possible to use a couple of NOT operators (!!) in series to explicitly force the conversion of any value to the corresponding boolean primitive. The conversion is based on the "truthyness" or "falsyness" of the value.

The same conversion can be done through the Boolean function.
