Comment (by tscrim):
Because it assumes the existence of a ''total'' order (which may not be
reasonable for matrices in the future as, IIRC, when they were first
implemented, we only had `__cmp__` in Python). Also `cmp` is going away in
Python3 and `__richcmp__` only calls `_cmp_` as a generic fallback. Plus
the current implementation already acts as how you're intending it to
(which might change as the ASM people might want the comparisons to be the
natural lattice and they would need to revert your changes).
