Complete rubbish -- it so absolutely is!
If $a===$b, then !($a===$b) is the same as $a!==$b, QED.

Well, you haven't covered all bases there, you've got INTEGER===true in twice!
Try this:
(integer)===TRUE -- is always FALSE
(integer)!==TRUE -- is always TRUE
(integer)===FALSE -- is always FALSE
(integer)!==FALSE -- is always TRUE
Looks seriously like two sets of complementary results there to me.

True.

False, false, false, and a thousand times false. If $a===$b returns TRUE, then $a!==$b returns FALSE; and if $a===$b returns FALSE, then $a!==$b returns TRUE. I don't know how much more opposite you can get.
