There was a problem hiding this comment.
Changes look good and more consistent than we had previously. The updated contribution guidance is nice.
I think sometimes it's not clear whether 'true' or 'True' would fit better, but I think it's a nice improvement just eliminating 'True'.

Adjust the docstrings so that true and false are used consistently, and also adjust the style guide to explain our practice.
"true" and "false" mean "truth-y" and "false-y".
TrueandFalsemean the Python objects. We don't use "True" or "False" (unless the capitalisation is from the start of a sentence).Fixes #2291
