Comment:

 Replying to [comment:12 vdelecroix]:
 > '''chain''' is standard terminology for poset. Why would you want to
 remove it? Instead I suggest to make `is_totally_ordered` as an alias for
 `is_chain`. Moreover there is the notion of '''antichain''' that does not
 have a ''anti totally ordered'' counterpart.

 True, ''antiordered'' does not sound good.

 So I guess I will revert this change. The reason was possible confusion of
 a set being a chain of poset and a whole poset being a chain.
