Unfortunately there's no easy way to fix this in 2.x, where any object is supposed to be comparable with any other. See issue 2531 for a previous discussion. It's fixed in 3.x: there a comparison (other than ==, !=) between a float and a Decimal does raise an exception. Closing as a duplicate of issue 2531. Issue 2531 is also closed, but you should feel free to add to the discussion there.
