Dennis Sweeney <[email protected]> added the comment:
This is the expected behavior, documented here:
https://docs.python.org/3/reference/expressions.html#comparisons
That page says:
* The comparison operators are "<" | ">" | "==" | ">=" | "<=" | "!=" |
"is" ["not"] | ["not"] "in"
* "Comparisons can be chained arbitrarily"
* "Note that a op1 b op2 c doesn’t imply any kind of comparison between a
and c, so that, e.g., x < y > z is perfectly legal (though perhaps not pretty)."
So I'll close this for now.
I think it would be hard to change this behavior without introducing a needless
backwards-incompatibility, but if you have a proposal, you could bring it up on
the Python-Ideas mailing list.
