There are, I think, two main differences here.

First is the logical one.  A "bool" is a type that can be either "true"
or "false".  This is clearer, simpler, and more closely models the
programmer's intent than storing a 0 or a 1 in a small integer type.  If
I read :

	bool isThingValid(const thing * p)

I know the result will be either "true" or "false".


If I read:

	int_fast8_t isThingValid(const thing * p)

I am left wondering if the thing might be partially valid, with a scale.
 I wonder /why/ the programmer wanted an arithmetic integer type aimed
at high-speed small integer ranges.  Will the function always return 0
or 1?  Does it consider non-zero as "true" ?  Is it going to give a
negative value if there is an error?  Did the programmer really want to
use an enumerated type but is converting to int_fast8_t to save space
somehow?

Prior to C99, it was extremely common in C programming to define your
own Boolean type.  Mostly this was done by something like:

	typedef int bool;
	#define true 1
	#define false 0

But sometimes signed or unsigned char was used, sometimes an enumerated
type, sometimes slightly different names or capitalisations were used.
A few would give different values for "true" and "false" (I've never
really understood why).  Some would define "true" as "(0 == 0)" or
similar, in the mistaken belief that the result might vary by compiler.

It is hugely simpler, clearer and more portable to stick to the one
standard type.


Secondly, there are technical differences.  The conversion of an integer
"x" to a _Bool "b" is effectively "b = !!x;".  You are guaranteed that
"b" is either 0 or 1 - and the compiler can use that knowledge for
optimisation (as can the programmer).  This can mean some operations
(such as conversion from an integer) may be less efficient, but other
operations (such as logical operations) are more efficient.  Overall, it
is usually a win.


Of course you can write your C code without ever needing the type _Bool.
 But you can write /better/ code, in a clearer, easier and more
efficient manner if you use it when appropriate.

(In C++, "bool" and its distinction from other integer types is hugely
more important.)
