> The current implementation of {{Compare}} has a special case for {{Number}}
> which uses {{doubleValue}} for all comparisons. However, this fails for some
> implementations of {{Number}}, e.g. {{BigInteger}}. Also, most
> implementations of {{Number}} implement {{Comparable}} for appropriately
> typed arguments. It should be more robust and less surprising to simply use
> {{Object.equals}} and {{Comparable.compareTo}}. This would also be more
> performant as it removes the {{instanceof}} checks.
> If we want the option of treating all numbers as doubles, perhaps something
> called {{CompareDouble}} would be more appropriate.
