I noticed that collections.Counter, unlike set, doesn't support the
ordered comparison operators (> < >= <=). I'd like to propose
implementing these operators in an analogous fashion to set: counter1 >=
counter2 if counter1 contains at least as many of every key as counter2
does. Cases where counter1 doesn't have a key and counter2 has a
negative amount of that key would still count as >=. counter1 > counter2
when counter1 >= counter2 and counter1 != counter2.
Does this sound reasonable? If so I'll write up and submit a patch.
This idea already was rejected. http://bugs.python.org/issue22515
