Eryk Sun added the comment:

How about "cannot be compared by value" or "cannot be ordered by value"? 
Emphasizing the value aspect doesn't conflict with the default equality 
comparison by identity.

Note that starting Python with the -b option causes the bytes type to raise a 
warning in this case:

    >>> sys.flags.bytes_warning
    1
    >>> 'a'.__eq__(b'a')
    NotImplemented

    >>> b'a'.__eq__('a')
    __main__:1: BytesWarning: Comparison between bytes and string
    NotImplemented
