When I do a man test I see:

<<<
test(1)                             fish                            
test(1)
. . .
   Standards
       test implements a subset of the IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (POSIX.1)
       standard. The following exceptions apply:

       ยท The < and > operators for comparing strings are not
       implemented.
. . .
Version 2.6.0                  Sat Jun 3 2017                       
test(1)
>>>

As far as I understand, the < and > operators for comparing strings are
not part of the standard [1], so this is not an exception to the
standard.  How about removing this sentence, or removing it from the
Standards section and putting it into a Limitations section?
