In general it's acceptable to return different types, I guess, as long as it is driven by some kind of compelling necessity or resulting convenience. This FALSE is just not convenient because of the confusion with 0; I think it just shows remarkably poor taste. When designing an API, the designer should take full responsibility about the anguish the API's hapless user must endure.
