Question marks and tuple returns?
Hi, a quick question regarding naming conventions. If I have a function that returns a tuple with status and a boolean, should I still use a question mark at the end of the function name, or should that only be used for functions that return a straight boolean?

should that only be used for functions that return a straight boolean?
Yes, only if returns exclusively true | false.
