It is nice to have some of that information collected together. I think people learn about comparison logic as a single topic rather than piecemeal type by type.
To Jim's point, the discussion of "is" and "is not" should probably be factored-out (their meaning is type-invariant and is not overridable with a dunder method). Also, they don't have the same reflective logic as the rich comparisons.
