Power Querry - Replace a boolean value True or False

Hello everyone ! 😊

I'm trying to replace boolean values based on another column condition.However and despite the absence of error, there is no modification at all on the table (the formula works perfectly to change non boolean values).

Could you please help ? Please find the Excel document and the Pbix here

Many thanks in advance ! 🙌

*If by any chance you also have a way to reduce the formula by avoiding "...or..." I would be very interested but I can deal with it !

Hello! I tried and indeed, it works on the test sample ! 😅

However, I think I forgot one key point... the column [Direct Contact] is Data Type = True/False and Under this format, the "false" doesn't work anymore... Please see below.
