Right -- I was looking for a counter example that that would be different with the two different semantic Maybe something like the following Sort order on master (even though "logically" one might expect `one month - 1 day` to be 27, 29, or 31 days, which are all larger than 15 days because the underlying representation ``` IntervalMonthDayNano(1, -1, 0) # one month - 1 day, 0 ns) IntervalMonthDayNano(0, 15, 0) # 0 months, 15 days, 0ns) ``` But if you changed comparison to the possibly more intuitive ordering: ``` IntervalMonthDayNano(1, -1, 0) # one month - 1 day, 0 ns) IntervalMonthDayNano(0, 15, 0) # 0 months, 15 days, 0ns) ``` then the order doesn't match the order of the underlying i128 🤔 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
