Are you thinking, by any chance, that "or" indicates a choice? Comparing 
False to either False "or" True? That is not the case.

"or" is an operator. "False or True" is *computed* and gives True, which 
is then compared to False by "==". Python works in these steps:

1) False ==  (False or True)
2) False ==  (True)
3) False
