> The title should be self describing. To give some more context on this, it would be nice if we stop boolean type enforcement on filter conditions as it is possible to create a scenario where we don't have a concrete return type but later bind it during execution. Currently we will need to `cast` condition to boolean explicitly. This does not reflect the flexibility of execution engine.
