There's no need to do that if you're checking on a situation like whether a checkbox is checked.
If your process involves a user manually entering the words true/false/0/1/etc and you're not validating it before using it on the backend.... That's a big problem for introducing weird issues.
Flipping whatever the checkbox state is into the words true/false to save somewhere should be one line in most languages.
