This was fixed. The current code has: convert = { '__lt__': [('__gt__', lambda self, other: not (self < other or self == other)), ('__le__', lambda self, other: self < other or self == other), ('__ge__', lambda self, other: not self < other)], '__le__': [('__ge__', lambda self, other: not self <= other or self == other), ('__lt__', lambda self, other: self <= other and not self == other), ('__gt__', lambda self, other: not self <= other)], '__gt__': [('__lt__', lambda self, other: not (self > other or self == other)), ('__ge__', lambda self, other: self > other or self == other), ('__le__', lambda self, other: not self > other)], '__ge__': [('__le__', lambda self, other: (not self >= other) or self == other), ('__gt__', lambda self, other: self >= other and not self == other), ('__lt__', lambda self, other: not self >= other)] } > Why not have `total_ordering` work in the way I suggested? To avoid needless posts, you should use the tracker.
