Yes, that is unfortunate. I can think of three things that we could do differently though:

1. add a `const` version of `IsValid` where it is missing, and have and always-const `operator bool` which uses that
2. give up on constness and just have a non-const `operator bool` everywhere
3. add a const `operator bool` everywhere, and have `IsValid` (const or non-const) call into that

Each option has different tradeoffs, and it's not really clear to me which one is better. I am happy to implement whichever you think is best.
