I would raise an error as if you compare complex numbers (in python):
sage: complex('2+j') < complex('1+j')
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-9-8f8c003f8a62> in <module>()
----> 1 complex('2+j') < complex('1+j')
TypeError: no ordering relation is defined for complex numbers
