yeah, it's funny how my brain collapsed the boolean check into if (role) rather than if (role === true) - that's tricky

what is FILE_NOT_FOUND? I can't find much on it ...

FILE_NOT_FOUND is from an old story on thedailywtf.com. Someone created a boolean enum with TRUE, FALSE and FILE_NOT_FOUND, if I recall correctly. It's been a recurring running joke.
