> And, more relevant to my immediate concern, what if the keys themselves
are dictionary-enough that ''they'' are platform-dependent? See #16331
for an explicit example of this. It would be great if you could give some
advice for that, because we haven't come to any useful consensus yet.
Well, #16331 is special because you're sorting a list containing integers
and strings. The problem is that the output of `sorted([3,"foo"])` isn't
well-defined.
