Sources? Does the JSON spec contain any information regarding
comparison operators? I don't think so, so that would be up to the
implementation to decide that, no?
Btw I would agree with you that's quite unintuitive, but that's not
wrong either to keep the current comparison algorithm because that's
harmless for btree. We could have more regression tests to make the
current behavior clear though. Thoughts from others are welcome.
