Not quite true.  Radio buttons can be individual controls in which case they
return a true or false (or null).  If a part of a group, then the GROUP
returns one value, the radio button currently selected, and also enforces
the "only one selected at a time" rule.

Maybe you should try checkboxes instead -- the radio buttons return a value
as a group, not as individual buttons.
