Comment:

 1. I think `__setstate__` would look better without checks for
 `exclude_keys` which is unnecessary.
  1. Equality/"non-equality" tests seem to be not the most efficient ones,
 although for generic polyhedra it is not obvious what one should do
 instead.
  1. Chosen definition of `==`, i.e. equality as sets of points, fits
 nicely together with other containment checks, but is inconsistent with
 the current situation for cones and fans. This bugs me a little bit, but
 not too much and I still prefer cones to take into account the ray order.

 Anyway, all this is more like just thinking aloud, I am satisfied with the
 patch as is and switching it to positive review! (But feel free to address
 the first issue if you want ;-))
