Perhaps it's better to call a spade a spade here - if they're implemented as 
comparisons, then why not document them as comparisons?

A colleague has mentioned one point that sets `in` and `not in` apart from the 
other comparisons in the table: comparisons are generally made between objects 
of the same type (with the exception of numbers).  But membership "comparisons" 
are made between different types (with the exception of substring checks).  

Here is an alternate patch which leaves the table alone, but corrects the 
inaccuracy in the note.
